Chelse Prather receives NSF grant

Chelse (now at Radford University) just received an NSF grant to study how micronutrients structure herbivore communities. The field work will be done at the UH Coastal Center, and Steve will have a subcontract at UH to help with the project. We hope that this project will involve a large team of undergraduates.

Steve awarded Moore’s Professorship

Last week Steve was awarded  a John and Rebecca Moore’s endowed chair at the University of Houston, starting in the 2013-2014 academic year. In addition to being an honor, this will give him a small fund of money to use on job-related activities. Here we see a candid moment with Dan Graur and Steve celebrating at the dinner.
