Tyler Bradway
Tyler Bradway, English Department, had his article titled “Graphic Attachment: Relational Formalism and Queer Dependency," published on March 27 in ASAP/J.
Timothy J. Baroni
Timothy J. Baroni, Biological Sciences Department, collaborated with colleagues from Louisiana State University and Humboldt State University on two papers that describe nine new species of mushrooms from Guyana. The papers were published in 2010 in the peer-reviewed journals Mycologia and Mycotaxon under the titles of “The Entolomataceae of the Pakaraima Mountains of Guyana,” parts IV and V.
Baroni also coauthored two additional peer-reviewed papers in 2011, with colleagues from the USDA Forest Service in Wisconsin and the University of Oslo, on a new genus and species of polypore fungi from Belize, (Aurantiopileus mayanensis genus et species novum), and a new polypore (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) from Belize with connections to existing Asian species.
One paper was published in North American Fungi and the second paper, on a different new species of polypore from Belize (a new species of Daedalea (Basidiomycota) and a synopsis of core species in Daedalea sensu stricto, was published in North American Fungi.
These papers presented a part of the results obtained from funding to Baroni and colleagues by the National Science Foundation and the National Geographic Society. Baroni’s most recent publication, coauthored with colleagues from Switzerland, Humboldt State University and Duke University, describes a new genus of pink-spored mushrooms that has its members widely spread in the temperate zones in the northern and southern hemispheres. Entocybe is proposed as a new genus in the Entolomataceae (Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota) based on morphological and molecular evidence. It also appeared in North American Fungi.
Chelsea M. Norton
Chelsea M. Norton, a graduate student in the Kinesiology Department, was recently named one of the American Kinesiology Association’s 2013 Graduate Scholars. The award recognizes her commitment to promoting and enhancing kinesiology as a unified field of study and advancing its many applications.
Tiantian Zheng
Tiantian Zheng, Sociology/Anthropology Department, was invited to deliver campus-wide talks at Hamilton College in September and at Columbia University in November on her recent research on self-identified gay men in postsocialist China.
Pete Ducey
Pete Ducey, Biological Sciences Department, is a coauthor on the manuscript “Is there more than one way to skin a newt? Convergent toxin resistance in snakes is not due to a common genetic mechanism” that has been accepted for publication in Heredity. The paper documents the genetic underpinnings of a novel strategy that evolved in a predator allowing for consumption of highly toxic prey. The research team, led by Chris Feldman of University of Nevada, includes researchers from seven universities and government agencies. The project’s findings add a new component to one of the most thoroughly studied evolutionary arms races in nature, that between newts with potent skin toxins and their snake predators.
Also, Ducey was recently appointed to the Board of Editors for the journal The Northeastern Naturalist.
Jeffrey Radloff, Angela Pagano and Dominick Fantacone
Jeffrey Radloff, Childhood/Early Childhood Education Department, Angela Pagano, Biological Sciences Department, and Dominick Fantacone, School of Education and regional director for the New York State Master Teacher Program, presented a paper titled, “Secondary Master STEM Teachers’ Tensions with Transitioning to Remote Instruction” on Jan. 15 at the International Conference of the Association of Science Teacher Education.
Tim Delaune
Tim Delaune, Political Science Department, was a presenter and panel chair/discussant on multiple panels at the Western Political Science Association annual meeting held March 24 -26 in San Diego, Calif. Delaune presented work in progress on the lessons that can be drawn from films and literature about the American West in regard to ethical policing.
Kathryn Kramer
Kathryn Kramer, Art and Art History Department, had her critical review of the photography and video art on display at the recent New Orleans biennial exhibition, Prospect New Orleans.2, published in the March-April issue of Afterimage: The Journal of Media Arts and Cultural Criticism. In addition, her article, “Flanerie and the Globalizing City,” co-authored with John Rennie Short, was published in the June-August 2011 issue of City.
Susan Barnett
Susan Barnett, Recreation, Parks and Leisure Studies Department, was featured in WalletHub’s May 31 article “2017’s Best & Worst Cities for Staycations.” Barnett was one 13 educators on the panel of experts who helped determine the best staycation spots by comparing the 150 most populated U.S. cities across three key dimensions: 1) recreation, 2) food and entertainment and 3) rest and relaxation.
Caroline K. Kaltefleiter
Caroline K. Kaltefleiter, Communication and Media Studies Department, presented at the Anarchist Studies Network Conference last fall. The virtual conference was hosted by Nottingham Trent University in the United Kingdom. The presentation, “Care and Crisis In New York: The Social Situation of Women, Anarcha-Feminism, and Mutual Aid During the COVID-Pandemic” was part of a panel discussion on the rise of mutual aid projects around the world. A follow-up paper will be presented on March 29, 2021 as part of the online Political Science Association UK Conference hosted by Queen’s University Belfast.
