We are happy to share with you the latest news from Vermont EPSCoR in the 2020 winter magazine.
The “Halloween Storm” of October 31 – November 1, 2019 caused significant damage to Vermont due to flooding and severe weather. A Major Disaster declaration for public infrastructure was signed. In this issue, Caitlin Crossett, Graduate Research Assistant, VT EPSCoR, PhD Candidate Civil and Environmental Engineering (UVM) and Panagiotis Oikonomou, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Associate, VT EPSCoR, discuss the storm and its relevance to BREE researchers. Erin Seybold, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Associate, VT EPSCoR, also shares a recent collaborative paper that discusses landuse/landcover change amidst a varying amount of annual rainfall and storm events. We’re pleased to also share news related to our Center for Workforce Development and Diversity at Saint Michael’s College (CWDD) – especially a few recent successes from summer undergraduate and high school students. Private sector efforts continue through workshops and conferences such as the National SBIR Road Tour held at the University of Vermont with upwards of 150 entrepreneurs in attendance.
