Students engage with industry professionals at the first Bioinspired Innovation Course
Weekend course held on the Lake Tahoe campus centered on redefining success, collaboration across fields
By Jade Magana
At the University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe, students from across disciplines gathered for the first Bioinspired Innovation Course, a one-credit weekend course designed to explore how ideas born in the lab can take shape in industry and be applied for everyday use.
"It made me realize how vast thescopes of these companies are," said Morgan Yeager, a graduate student in the chemistry department. "Chatting with these industry professionals gave me an insight into the broad scale and interdisciplinary aspect of the work; there really are limitless possibilities."
One-credit weekend courses at the Lake Tahoe campus provide a unique opportunity to blend academic growth with hands-on field experience. In one weekend, students deepen their understanding in a specific subject matter, engage directly with course material and connect with peers and faculty -- all within the stunning Sierra Nevada landscape.
Students from across the Colleges of Science, Liberal Arts, Business, and Biotechnology and Natural Resources learned how designs in nature can inspire innovation and advance discoveries in medicine. They listened to innovators who had turned their "aha moments" into real-world breakthroughs, from the lab bench to life-saving HIV treatments.
The talks were presented by industry professionals, including Michael "Mick" Hitchcock, interim CEO of Biomea Fusion; Dmitry Koltun, medicinal chemist at Bluejay Therapeutics; and pharmaceutical entrepreneur Scott Chadwick. Each relayed a common message: science is a shared pursuit, strengthened by collaboration across fields. Each leader underscored that their discoveries were only possible through focused, collaborative teams.
"I always believe that science is done by people and in fact often by multiple people working on different parts of the same problem," said Hitchcock. "This can only happen when people get together and have conversations, build ideas and trust, and imagine possibilities."
The industry leaders said they viewed their participation as an investment in the future of innovation, stressing that true progress relies on a community driven by curiosity and collaboration. And this is the spirit that continues to position the University as a hub for science and forward-thinking research. After the lectures, students said they were leaving with a broader definition of success.
"You can be successful if you are a CEO of a company, you can be successful if you start a company from scratch, you can be successful if you are the synthetic chemist sitting at the lab bench," Yeagar said. "There is more than one way to be successful in [the pharmaceutical industry], which is such a positive. It makes me look forward to entering the workforce knowing success can be right around the corner."
For Jeffrey, the goal was to test a new kind of learning environment, one rooted in the student's experience, collaboration and connection and centered on innovation. As the Lake Tahoe campus looks to make the course a permanent fixture, the weekend stands as a model for how interdisciplinary learning can thrive when students are given the space and the resources to unplug from the typical hustle and bustle and find themselves lost in deep thought.
"I wanted to see how a non-traditionally formatted class, an experiential class, hosted at the setting of the Lake Tahoe campus, with undergraduates and graduate students, and guest speakers felt like," said Christopher Jeffrey, professor of chemistry and Harold Walter Siebens Endowed Chair in Entrepreneurship. "What I learned was that the level of engagement with students was much higher than any classroom class that I've taught and I want to build on that model and continue these courses across many sectors of innovation."
The Bioinspired Innovation Course wasn't just about science; it was about students finding community, perspective and the confidence to imagine what's next.
"When universities build real partnerships with industry, we give students and faculty a direct line to how innovation actually happens in the world. Programs like this show what the University of Nevada stands for: bringing ideas to life through collaboration and curiosity," said Interim Vice Provost and Dean at the University of Nevada, Reno at Lake Tahoe, Douglas Boyle. "Investing in these connections signals to future students and partners that the University is a place where discovery doesn't stop in the lab; it grows into something that makes an impact."

Early stress linked to adult mental health disorders
New research suggests stress related physiological changes in adolescence may lay the groundwork for serious mental health problems in adulthood and opens the door for nipping them in the bud.
Professor Zoltan Sarnyai from James Cook University's Margaret Roderick Centre for Mental Health Research co-authored the study.
He said childhood and adolescence are sensitive periods of brain development, during which the body and brain are subject toa range of influences.
"Many of these are adverse, including both psychosocial maltreatments, such as abuse and neglect and family-related difficulties and biological factors like poor nutrition, pollution and toxins," said Professor Sarnyai.
"Early adversity is particularly impactful on healthy brain development during sensitive periods, such as the period between the ages of 5 and 12, 12 and 18 and into early adulthood."
The scientists used one of Britain's largest population databases involving more than 14,000 children. They examined how chronic stress and metabolic dysfunction at age 17 influenced psychiatric outcomes seven years later.
Professor Sarnyai said the scientists used the concept of allostatic load (AL) - the long term physiological burden that arises when stress responses are triggered too frequently or for too long.
"It manifests in high blood pressure, high cholesterol, insulin resistance, and abnormal cortisol rhythms. We found it's a powerful predictor of mood and psychotic disorders in young adults," said Professor Sarnyai.
The study revealed that teenagers with elevated AL were significantly more likely to develop mood disorder symptoms, psychotic disorder symptoms, or both, by age 24.
Insulin resistance, when the body stops responding properly to its naturally produced insulin, emerged as a critical factor. Insulin is the key hormone to help glucose, the main energy source for all the cells in the body, to be properly used by the body.
"Adolescents suffering from insulin resistance were disproportionately represented in all three disorder groups compared to healthy controls. With the strongest link seen in those who later developed psychotic symptoms," said PhD student Sabine Finlay, the lead author of the publication.
She said the findings underscore adolescence as a vulnerable window for brain and body health.
"Multisystem dysregulation in late adolescence comes before the onset of mood and psychotic symptoms in early adulthood. AL and metabolic markers could serve as early warning indicators of psychiatric vulnerability," said Professor Sarnyai.
He said the implications are far reaching.
"We now have the opportunity to identify at risk teens through biological markers and use preventive interventions aimed at reducing stress and improve metabolic health before psychiatric disorders take hold," said Professor Sarnyai.

EXPERT COMMENT: "Children can spend up to 70% of their time in childcare not moving. Our review shows many opportunities that increase movement and play."
This week, the National Early Years Active Start Partnership (NEYASP) have launched a new advisory document, designed to support the Early Years sector in understanding, valuing, and providing high-quality movement opportunities for all young children.
Movement Matters looks at the vital role movement plays in young children's health, learning,and development, and provides recommendations that will support educators, leaders, and families to embed movement at the heart of early childhood.
The guidance, developed by NEYASP partners, is available on the Early Movers website, a collaborative venture between Loughborough University, the National Centre for Sport and Exercise Medicine (NCSEM), and Loughborough University Nursery, which is dedicated to promoting physical development in children under five. Earlier this year, Early Movers /Loughborough University partnered with NEYASP to create a digital home for their mission.
Dr Janine Coates, a Reader in Equity and Inclusion in Physical Activity and Sport at Loughborough, and vice-chair of the National Early Years Active Start partnership, sat down with us to discuss the importance of movement in the first five years of a child's life, the positive role that adults can play, and the benefits that both risky, and sometimes muddy, play can have.
Physical activity in early childhood
Discussing the important role that both parents and childcare settings play in children's development, Dr Coates commented:
"We recently did a review which included 112 international studies relating to children's physical development through activity and play in the early years. This showed us that children can spend up to 70% of their time in childcare not moving. Children spend much of their time in childcare, so practitioners influence activity levels.
"Our review shows many opportunities that increase movement and play, especially outdoor play. Natural elements like trees or inclines support more movement. Portable play equipment such as balls, hula hoops, scarves and beanbags also help. Large indoor spaces increase active play. Early educators need to think about the space and opportunities they provide for children to move.
"Parents also have an important role in offering movement opportunities outside of childcare. Both groups need to work together to help children meet physical activity guidelines."
Setting a good example
Dr Coates discussed how as adults our own movement and activity plays an important influence.
"One of our recommendations is that adults play an active role by showing children that they also enjoy being active. Children respond when they see adults being active and enjoying movement. Early years educators and parents should play together with children more, both outside and indoors. This motivates children to be active."
Getting children moving more
Explaining the ways we can get children moving more, Dr Coates comments on the need to focus on variety, allowing risky play, and the simple solution of building movement into our daily routines.
"Children move more when they enjoy the activity and the space. Boredom can contribute to sedentary behaviour so offering a range of different opportunities and changing things up can help. Offering varied movement opportunities supports new skills and increases their motivation to be active.
"Research over the last 20 years has shown a decline in adventurous play, especially outdoors. Also known as risky play, this includes climbing trees, using tall slides, and travelling at speed on scooters. These activities support development even if they feel worrying for adults. The evidence shows wide benefits when children explore and challenge themselves safely. Adults should support this in a controlled way.
"Physical activity can be spread out over a day through a whole range of different activities, such as commuting, or walking to the park or a childcare setting. It can also be incorporated into other learning opportunities such as dance and music."
Getting outside, whatever the weather
To date, November 2025, has been a wet and windy month. Many families will choose to stay inside, out of the rain, which can limit opportunities for movement. Dr Coates comments on the importance of getting kids outside and moving, even when the weather is bad.
"Children often don't care about the rain. They are happy being out in all weathers. Outdoor play in varied weather offers different movement and play opportunities.
"As adults we need to get over our own dislike of bad weather, chuck on some wellies and a coat and join our children jumping in puddles."

By Cody Baggerly
The Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET) has approved a $13M Legacy Grant to East Central University (ECU) for the purpose of completing The Dan Hays STEM Center and School of Nursing in Ada, Okla., a major capital project that will expand healthcare workforce education across Oklahoma, particularly rural Oklahoma.
"This project aligns with the university Strategic Plan to produce workforce readygraduates," said ECU President Wendell Godwin. "Nursing is our largest major on campus today, a prime example of how we contribute to Oklahoma's mission to grow the state's workforce."
The Dan Hays STEM Center, currently under construction and projected for completion in July 2026, supports TSET's mission by increasing healthcare capacity, advancing chronic disease prevention and improving health outcomes statewide. About 80% of ECU nursing graduates remain in Oklahoma after graduation.
The 64,000 square foot facility will feature a simulation center, more than 25 hands-on labs and advanced STEM classrooms for Nursing, Math and Computer Science students. The expansion is expected to generate a major increase in nursing graduates and will allow ECU to grow to 600 nursing majors over the next four years while adding additional faculty and staff.
ECU's School of Nursing continues to demonstrate strong outcomes through NCLEX-RN pass rates, holds continuing accreditation from the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN) and is approved by the Oklahoma Board of Nursing. This program is the only accredited Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program in the South Central and Southeastern part of Oklahoma. The latest American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) survey revealed that 28% of new nursing positions required a BSN, while 72% stated they strongly prefer a BSN prepared nurse. A step above the LPN and RN certifications.
"We appreciated the opportunity to share our vision/project with the TSET Board of Directors over the past several months," said ECU Senior Advancement Officer, Dr. Gerald Williamson. "This Legacy Grant is going to make a positive impact in healthcare for decades to come. The fact that they believed in our mission and chose to partner with ECU means a lot to our university and more importantly our nursing students."
TSET is a state grantmaking trust dedicated to improving the health of Oklahomans. It funds programs that reduce tobacco use and obesity, the state's leading causes of preventable death, and supports initiatives that create healthier communities.

EAST STROUDSBURG, Pennsylvania, Nov. 22 -- East Stroudsburg University issued the following news release:

ESU College of Education Program Tackles Teacher Shortage by Inspiring Future Educators
Hundreds of high school students visited East Stroudsburg University on Nov. 12 for an immersive learning experience designed to inspire and recruit future educators, address teacher shortages, and build connections between university faculty, staff, college student ambassadors, and high school students interested in education careers.
Organized by ESU's College of Education, the Aspiring EducatorPathway Project (AEPP) On-Campus Experience featured rotating sessions led by ESU teacher candidates, professional mentors and College of Education faculty.
Students from eight area school districts - Delaware Valley, East Stroudsburg, Hanover, Pleasant Valley, Pocono Mountain, Scranton, Stroudsburg and Wallenpaupack - attended sessions focused on belonging, balance, creativity and wellbeing, idea generation and growth mindset.
After one team-building session that saw teams square off in a spirited game of tug-of-war, Scranton High School senior Paige Dougherty recognized the activity was about more than friendly competition: the cooperation and communication skills her team used to pull the rope as a cohesive unit were also essential to the career she plans to pursue.
"I knew that I wanted to be a teacher, but today really cemented it for me," Dougherty said.
Providing opportunities for high school students like Dougherty to envision themselves as educators through the AEPP is not only helpful to them, it also addresses a critical need.
In recent years, Pennsylvania has grappled with a teacher shortage compounded by a shrinking pipeline of new educators, said Jay Kule, a longtime school counselor at East Stroudsburg Area School District and a returning participant in the AEPP On-Campus Experience.
"There's not a replenishment of teachers who are leaving the field of education, so this is really one way to attack that shortage head-on and get young people into the field of education," Kule said.
Regina Brotherton, a family and consumer sciences teacher at East Stroudsburg High School, has been in the field for over 20 years. She said programs like AEPP that expose students to education careers early can help them align their passions with career choices while building long-term support networks.
"We have seen that people spend their first few years in college and then find out maybe this career isn't for them," she said. "It's nice to have something like this at the high school level that can help determine whether this is for you."
For students in ESU's College of Education like Connor Kiehl, the AEPP On-Campus Experience also plays a pivotal role in their growth.
"Being a part of this project brings out more inclusivity, more diversity and it helps me get to know these students on a more personal level - where they come from, their backgrounds and what motivates them," Kiehl said.
A senior majoring in physical and health education, Kiehl was invited to participate in the program by one of his professors, quickly realizing how well it complimented his role as a student teacher, he said.
Moreover, as one of the ambassadors overseeing the tug-of-war games, he saw how a simple activity can bring students out of their shell, get them engaged, and encourage them to work together towards a goal.
"There's so much that goes into education, and being even a small piece of education is the biggest blessing, in my eyes, that I've ever had," he said.
Experiences like those of Kiehl, Dougherty and other participants signaled the program's effectiveness in just a short time since its inception, said Brooke Langan, D.Ed., Dean of the College of Education.
"When we started this program, we had 50 students come to campus," Langan said. "To see over 200 students here now just two years later, it really speaks to the impact of education."

ESF Joins Six SUNY campuses for Internship Exchange Program with University of Puerto Rico and Para La Naturaleza
The SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) is one of seven SUNYs participating in the second annual internship exchange program in partnership with the University of Puerto Rico (UPR) and the conservation organization Para La Naturaleza, providing SUNY students the opportunity to conduct hands-on research to take climate action andimprove sustainability.
This year, seven SUNY campuses will participate in the internship exchange program with Para La Naturaleza in summer 2026, up from three. SUNY Chancellor John B. King Jr announced the second annual internship opportunity during the recently concluded SOMOS Conference in Puerto Rico, where he also met with UPR's system administrators to renew SUNY's partnership commitment and invite UPR students back next summer to attend the Chancellor's Summer Research Excellence Program.
"Hands-on experiences are fundamental to the learning and professional success of our students," said King. "This internship program helps build stronger bonds between SUNY institutions and the University of Puerto Rico and helps future leaders conduct important research to improve conservation efforts and address climate change. We are proud to work with Para La Naturaleza to ensure the return of this internship exchange opportunity which helps build skills that will last a lifetime."
Last year, five students from ESF joined their peers from SUNY Oneonta, and SUNY Buffalo to travel to Puerto Rico for the pilot program research exchange experience funded by the Chancellor's Summer Research Excellence Fund. Mark Lichtenstein, ESF's executive operating officer, played a key role in stewarding the trip for the students.
As part of the summer internship, students were able to examine and monitor Laguna Grande's water quality, visit the El Yunque rainforest to identify endemic species, explore unique canyons to identify geological formations, and discuss conservation strategies. The experience ended with a volunteer day at the local community. In addition, four UPR students were selected to conduct research over the summer at Upstate Medical and the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
"ESF is proud to continue participating in this program with the University of Puerto Rico and Para La Naturaleza, which strengthens our commitment to sustainability and global collaboration," said ESF President Joanie Mahoney. "Internships that focus on environmental research give students invaluable, hands-on experience that prepares them to tackle real-world challenges. It's opportunities such as these that help our students grow as leaders while making a meaningful impact on conservation efforts."
Chancellor King made the announcement about the second year of the internship opportunity and connected with Para La Naturaleza as part of SUNY's panel at the annual SOMOS conference in Puerto Rico. The panel included live student testimonies from last summer's participants and a video highlighting SUNY's strong connection with the University of Puerto Rico. The panel showcased the unique ways SUNY is collaborating with UPR, such as providing professional development resources for UPR faculty in AI in Teaching and offering UPR students access to our world-renowned research labs and expert faculty.
The SUNY campuses along with ESF selected to participate in this year's program are: SUNY Albany, SUNY Cortland, Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), SUNY New Paltz, SUNY Oneonta and SUNY Oswego.
