In Tyler Kartzinel’s Genomic Opportunities Lab, students and scientists work hand-in-hand with global partners to solve urgent conservation challenges, from restoring habitats to understanding what keeps wildlife healthy.

From the Explorers Club to the United Nations Headquarters, IBES faculty were at the forefront of Climate Week, contributing expertise on the cryosphere, climate obstruction, and global science funding.

Ten years of research projects, countless ideas, one shared mission: to build a sustainable future.

IBES awarded grants to six core and affiliate faculty members, allowing them to conduct research that crosses boundaries and benefits communities, both at Brown and around the world.

Professor Nancy Jacobs, along with three Brown students and local partners, recently opened a new museum in Uganda to connect communities with endangered wildlife.

IBES Director Kim Cobb is one of dozens of scientists working to counter the Trump administration's efforts to weaken pollution regulations.

IBES and DEEPS Professor Amanda Lynch co-authored this commentary, which states that, if done well, the Central Arctic Ocean Fisheries Agreement "can provide a model for sustainable ocean management around the world."

Rainforest Reserves Australia misleadingly cited research by Visiting Professor Robert Brulle, an expert on global climate obstruction, in a submission to Australia's Senate inquiry on misinformation and disinformation. Brulle offered commentary on the matter.

As an Urban Sustainability & Justice Faculty Fellow, Assistant Professor Myles Lennon will visit Ann Arbor and Detroit in November, engaging in conversations on energy justice and sustainability and connecting with community organizations.

Associate Professor Tyler Kartzinel co-authored a new study that reveals how diamondback terrapins, keystone predators in salt marshes, face heightened risks as their populations decline.

Assistant Professor Myles Lennon published his first book, “Subjects of the Sun: Solar Energy in the Shadows of Racial Capitalism,” over the summer.

Assistant Professor Daniel Ibarra is co-author of this study, which provides a new framework for examining how organisms have fundamentally altered ecosystems on a global scale across hundreds, thousands, or millions of years.

This study, co-authored by IBES and Biology Associate Professor Tyler Kartzinel, reveals that diamondback terrapins face heightened risks at the northern edge of their range in New England as their genetic diversity declines.

Jennifer Hadden, an IBES affiliate at the Watson School for International and Public Affairs, co-penned this commentary, which notes that "the current U.S. housing policy regime creates tradeoffs between promoting equity and addressing climate risk."
