By Michael Miller, 513/556-6757, michael.miller3@uc.edu
Science outlets including Smithsonian magazine, Earth.com and Discover magazine highlighted a study co-authored by University of Cincinnati Professor Bruce Jayne, an expert in snake locomotion, examining how snakes can stand upright without arms or legs.
Jayne, a biologist in UC's College of Arts and Sciences,worked with physicists, mathematicians and other researchers at Harvard University on a study looking at the physics behind this remarkable ability. The research combines biology, mathematics and mechanical modeling to explain how snakes manage such a delicate balancing act.
Researchers discovered that snakes don't have to stiffen the entire length of their bodies to span a gap in a forest or reach up to a branch or ledge. Instead, the muscles become rigid near the base where the animal's weight is supported.
The key is the animal's strength in maintaining balance as it stretches up or outward, they found.
The study was published in the Journal of The Royal Society Interface.
Previously, Jayne has studied the many ways snakes navigate obstacles such as tunnels, sand dunes and branches. And in 2021 he discovered a unique way climbing snakes such as brown tree snakes scale wide-barreled objects like tree trunks or light poles that he calls lasso locomotion.

Donors support Aggie engineers in labs and lecture halls
Former students Donnice and Doug White '78 give back to the College of Engineering by supporting students through scholarship and necessary lab equipment.
By David Holt, Texas A&M Engineering
From a dryland wheat farm in West Texas to the classrooms at Texas A&M University, Doug White '78 has built a remarkable career in chemical engineering. Now he and his wife Donnice are giving back to ensure future Aggies have thesame opportunities.
White first discovered his passion for engineering thanks to a high school mentor.
"A science teacher at Canyon High School noticed my aptitude for math and science and encouraged me to attend an engineering conference at Texas A&M during my junior year. That trip lit the spark," he said. "From that point on, my goal was clear: go to college and become a chemical engineer. Through a combination of good fortune and a successful wheat crop, I was able to attend as a first-generation college student."
While at Texas A&M, White joined the Aggie Band and maintained his focus on his studies -- forging lasting relationships and meeting Donnice, who would later become his wife. Both pursued their chemical engineering degrees and launched rewarding careers in the industry before starting their family.
After a 34-year stint in the chemical industry, primarily with DuPont, White returned to Texas A&M as a senior lecturer in the Artie McFerrin Department of Chemical Engineering.
"I enjoyed helping students and young engineers connect theory to real-world processes," he said. "Teaching in the Unit Operations Lab was a natural fit -- it allowed me to focus on applied learning and help students develop the skills they would need in industry."
During his decade as an instructor, White taught more than 1,600 students and says it remains one of the most rewarding chapters of his career.
As committed Aggies, the Whites decided to support the department further through funding for upgraded lab equipment and by establishing a scholarship.
"Heat transfer is a fundamental unit operation in nearly every chemical engineering role, and the Unit Operations Lab needed improved equipment to better teach those concepts," he said. "When the department began fundraising for a new apparatus, Donnice and I felt it was important to participate."
The scholarship, targeting first-generation students, holds special meaning for the Whites.
"We chose to support first-generation chemical engineering students because we understand how unfamiliar and intimidating that path can be," he said. "We've been fortunate in our opportunities, and this felt like a meaningful way to help students with similar backgrounds reach their goals."
Thanks to the generosity of Doug and Donnice White, Texas A&M's College of Engineering continues to thrive, empowering new generations of Aggies both in the classroom and beyond.

Hofstra Honors College Presents a New Seminar: "Public Relations History"
Rabinowitz Honors College is offering a new seminar this semester, "Public Relations History: The Good and the Bad," taught by Associate Professor of Journalism, Media Studies, and Public Relations Jeffrey Morosoff. The course covers public relations techniques dating all the way back to the prerevolutionary war in America.
Morosoff believes the class is the first of its kind to look at how public relations has been employed to influencepeople's political, social, and cultural attitudes.
"History repeats itself. We need to be aware of the dangers of the misuse of propaganda and public relations techniques in the name of nation building, public safety, and security," he said. "We don't want to lose the democratic media we have in this country. We have to understand how words and images can be used for good, how they can be used for evil, and understand the difference."
The 21 students in the course come from an array of academic disciplines.
Caroline Coyne '26, an English major, is taking her first course in public relations. "I find it fascinating how psychology connects to conversations about media and propaganda," she shared. "It's important to understand how messaging can influence the public on a subconscious level."
Emma Manfredi '26, a psychology major, said the course has challenged her assumptions about the field. "I used to think public relations was a modern concept, but it's interesting to see how it has been used throughout history and across the world," she added. "There seems to be a universal pattern in how people respond to certain PR techniques - even when they didn't recognize it as PR at the time. It really shows which strategies are effective and which aren't."
Highlights of the course have included a field trip to the Public Relations Museum in New York City last month, which is home to the world's largest collection of books, manuals, journals, and essays written about the PR field. Works by public relations pioneers Edward Bernays, Ed Block, Harold Burson, Gustave Le Bon, Ofield Dukes, Doris Fleischman, Muriel Fox, John Hill, Inez Kaiser, Ivy Lee, Walter Lippmann, Arthur Page, and Alfred Trotter are among its holdings.
"When Professor Morosoff came to us with this idea we knew it would be popular with the students, but also an important addition to the Hofstra curriculum," said Rabinowitz Honors College Dean Warren Frisina. "Our seminars are also 'incubators' for ideas faculty have, which they test with us and then take back to their departments. This is a perfect example of curricular innovation at its best."
Professor Morosoff is hoping to turn Public Relations History into a regularly offered elective course.

Harvard receives first LBC Core certifications for 3 major sustainable renovations
There are more than 380 buildings on Harvard's Cambridge campus, many over 100 years old. Ensuring these historic buildings preserve their architectural character, while meeting the ever-changing needs of the campus, and the University's aggressive sustainability goals has long been a challenge. With the recent approval of its first three projects under Living Future's rigorous Living Building Challenge Core Green BuildingCertification, Harvard not only received recognition for its restoration efforts, but marked the success of three pilot renovations that emphasized holistic sustainability -- paving the way to scale this work to future campus renovations.
Harvard received LBC Core certifications for two historic gut renovations of Harvard University Housing & Real Estate residential buildings at 13 Kirkland Street and 5 Sacramento Street, and an interior renovation that transformed the second floor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education's Gutman Library.
The renovations piloted Harvard's 2024 Sustainable Building Standards, which target LBC Core and healthier buildings including a healthier supply chain per the Harvard Healthier Building Academy, which avoids toxic chemical classes, like forever chemicals, in products. LBC Core differs from other certifications because it not only requires review of design and construction documentation, but a performance period that proves operational data on energy, water, and landscape.
"Harvard is pursuing LBC Core because faculty and staff advisers agreed it's holistic, demonstrating that leadership on climate, health and resiliency can be achieved together," said Heather Henriksen, Harvard's chief sustainability officer. "Paired with HHBA's removal of toxic chemical classes from everyday products, it ensures spaces aren't just efficient, but genuinely healthier for everyone, as healthier supply chains benefit all."
With the goal of creating more housing for Harvard affiliates on campus, the gut renovations of 13 Kirkland Place and 5 Sacramento Street, built in 1856 and 1881, paired energy and health improvements with careful historic preservation. Beyond LBC Core certifications, the two properties are the first multi-family projects globally to achieve Passive House Institute US (PHIUS) Core Revive 2021 certification. Project teams preserved historic exteriors and reused materials to reduce embodied carbon, earning 2025 Awards for Excellence in Historic Preservation and Sustainable Living from Cambridge's Historical Commission.
"We're committed to meeting the highest available third-party standards and creating holistically sustainable spaces whenever possible, given competing priorities," said Justin Stratman, HUHRE managing director. "These projects show we can respect Harvard's historic fabric while creating homes that are healthier, far more efficient, and ready for a fossil fuel-free future."
Both residential buildings reduced energy use well beyond LBC Core's requirement of 50 through high-efficiency energy recovery and heat pumps for heating, cooling and hot water. Low-flow fixtures, water-efficient appliances, and irrigation-free landscape reduced potable water use more than 50 percent. The projects met HHBA standards for all interior product categories and enhanced indoor air quality.
The outdoor landscape design is climate-resilient and ecologically rich while encouraging walking, cycling, and connections to nature, art, and community. Soil amendments, on-site rainwater infiltration, and stormwater management work alongside tree preservation, pollinator gardens, and biodiverse, drought-tolerant plantings, supporting resilience and habitat.
While newer than the Victorian-era buildings at Kirkland and Sacramento streets, the architecturally significant Gutman Library needed to transform the 19,000-square-foot second floor to integrate health, sustainability, and community. The renovated space unites student services, library functions, and collaborative workspaces, and marks the first-ever higher education project to achieve LBC Core for an interior renovation. Biophilic design strategies include a plant wall, daylight access, natural wood finishes, plus improved wayfinding and accessibility.
"The renovation is a terrific moment in overall campus development and another major step in transforming Gutman to better meet our community's evolving needs," said Jason Carlson, HGSE Chief of Operations. "We're excited that we successfully created a student-centric hub that enhances the student experience, promotes community connections, and reflects our health and sustainability commitments."
The Gutman project operates with low temperature hot water and significant operational and embodied carbon reductions. Advanced controls, demand control ventilation, and sensored LED lighting all lower energy use. Mechanical upgrades increase fresh air and filtration for better indoor air quality, while efficient, low-flow fixtures cut water use significantly.
Gutman achieved HHBA standards for all categories. Reusing ceilings, floors, furniture, and partitions -- and careful selection of low-carbon ceilings, carpets, and gypsum products -- reduced embodied carbon 56 percent compared to a conventional project.
The three LBC Core certifications symbolize Harvard's commitment to its holistic Sustainable Building Standards, and lessons from these pilots are informing seven additional projects targeting LBC Core. Together, these certifications mark a significant step forward in Harvard's decarbonization and health efforts.

'Whole experience was just wonderful': Surgeon reflects on support, confidence he gained at SC State
Dr. William Long credits SC State with shaping his career and fueling his commitment to service and expanding opportunities in podiatric medicine.
Author: Dionne Gleaton/Senior Writer
Dr. William Long reflects on his time at South Carolina State University with pride because the longstanding institution instilled in him a faith that he could excel at any level he chose.
The Spartanburg,S.C., native graduated from SC State in 1999 with a biology degree and never forgot the love and encouragement that Dr. Judith Salley, chair of SC State's Department of Biological and Physical Sciences, poured into him and other students.
Confidence, culture and preparation set the foundation
"It was just the confidence coming out of a historically Black college. I was a biology major with Dr. Salley. She always stressed to us that our degrees at SC State are just as good as any other degree. Her putting that confidence in me as I matriculated throughout my career just helped," Long said.
He has maintained a successful career as a podiatric surgeon who is the owner of Upstate Podiatry Group PA, a podiatry clinic specializing in foot and ankle care with eight offices across the Upstate, including Simpsonville, Spartanburg, Greer and Laurens.
Long said landing at SC State provided him with the fertile ground from which to build his skills.
"And just being around positive Black people. That was the main thing. My high school, Spartanburg High School, was probably 70 percent white. So a lot of times in my advanced classes, I'd be one of two or three Black people in the class," he said.
Long said he was no longer considered an "exception to the rule" at SC State, where he felt welcomed and Black excellence surrounded him.
"That was amazing. That really was life transforming. My roommate was my high school valedictorian. I picked up things from him by watching his study habits. My whole experience was just wonderful, it really was," he said.
While at SC State, Long was also the recipient of the U.S. Coast Guard's Minority Officer Recruiting Effort Scholarship.
"That was a full scholarship. Everything was taken care of, and that took a huge stress off my family," he said.
Long received his Bachelor of Science degree in biology from SC State before serving eight years of active duty in the U.S. Coast Guard. While stationed in Charleston, South Carolina, Long was selected to supervise the Maritime Homeland Security Office Department in response to the horrific events of 9/11.
He later earned his Master of Arts from The Citadel and his Doctor of Podiatric Medicine from Temple University. Long completed his four-year foot and ankle residency at the University of Pennsylvania Presbyterian Medical Center before returning to the Upstate.
From student to surgeon: Giving back and leading change
It was a journey that has allowed him to give back to his community -- and alma mater -- in a number of ways.
"We try to donate every year. I truly believe in that. You have to lift as you climb and also remember where you came from. It was South Carolina State that provided the foundation. I always remembered what Dr. Salley said," Long said.
"Once I transitioned into podiatry, I started working to get laws passed," he said, including the passage of legislation that allows podiatric physicians to perform ankle surgery in South Carolina, which had been one of a few remaining states that had not allowed such procedures.
"I became the first podiatrist to do ankle surgery in South Carolina," said Long, who is also on the American Podiatric Medical Association Board of Trustees.
The physician has worked on that national platform to increase student recruitment among historically Black colleges and universities.
Part of that effort helped land him at SC State on March 2 for a Discover Podiatric Medicine seminar, a project that introduced students to the podiatry field through a partnership between SC State and Temple University's School of Podiatric Medicine.
"We have a really big push to recruit now from historically Black colleges. We need to because I promise you that the majority of the Blacks that are in podiatry that are doing great graduated from an HBCU," Long said.
"We've even discussed to the point where we may try to open up the first historically Black podiatric medical school. We may do this at Johnson C. Smith University. Their president, Dr. Valerie Kinloch, is open to it.
"That's why I want to build that strong relationship at South Carolina State because that's my alma mater. If we're going to do a lot of things, we definitely need to pull South Carolina State in this, as well," he said.
Long said being a podiatric surgeon provides an opportunity to make a difference in the communities he serves, particularly among African Americans, who tend to see higher amputation rates.
"I just think it's our obligation as physicians to reach back. I'm not trying to get accolades for it. It's about preventive medicine. I give my patients my personal cell phone. If they're ever admitted to the hospital, or something going on, they can call me," he said, noting that all it takes is one person to make an impact.
Investing in the future of SC State and health care
Long foresees a bright future for SC State.
"South Carolina State's doing a great job right now. I'm loving the fact that I'm getting more mailers and things like that for donations," the surgeon said.
"I love the fact that the campus is growing. That is a real thing. You want to have the facilities for the students, so I love seeing that. I definitely want to see more students going into medicine, specifically in podiatry, but, if not, just in medicine in general," he said.
How will Long help support that?
"I really think that we do better when we are seeing Black physicians as far as growth. Personally, I would love to have something where we can have scholarships for different podiatric medical schools that are specific to South Carolina State. That'll be something that I'll be working on," Long said.
