Change is constant in our lives as are advances to address our shifting world and its impacts on health, housing and historical politics.
Today, I share news about how UWM researchers are studying the pandemic’s effects on adolescent brain development, a UW student team in the top 10 finalists of the Department of Energy’s competition to design a new energy efficient home, and how former Florida Gov.
