March Issue of The Arkansas Catalyst Highlights Campus Research

The March 2013 issue of The Arkansas Catalyst, an online monthly newsletter from the University of Arkansas’ office of research and economic development, features federally funded research of programmed cell death in fruit flies, highlights a presentation by Distinguished Professor David Stahle at the American Association for the Advancement of Science annual meeting; showcases an important milestone in the patenting process for a U of A-affiliated technology company; and includes research conducted by faculty in the College of Education and Health Professions.

The newsletter highlights exciting research and economic development activities on the University of Arkansas campus. The office of research and economic development is working to enhance the university research enterprise, including multidisciplinary research. Future newsletters will also focus on six interdisciplinary research strengths at the U of A: health, energy and environment, nanoscience and engineering, supply chain logistics and transportation, food safety, and American art, architecture and the humanities.
