Today's Messages

“The Great Lakes Center is pleased to release our fall 2025 newsletter (PDF, 2.6MB). This issue is the largest one yet, opening with a word from our interim director Dr. Chris Pennuto. We cover our summer research trips, including the five-lake survey of the Great Lakes, an intensive look at Lake Michigan, and the search for Diporeia in the Finger Lakes, as well as a fall research trip to the Republic of Georgia looking at the genetics of freshwater unionid mussels. We check back in with the Emerald Shiner Project, which has advanced to the installation of fish passage in the Niagara River. WNY PRISM describes their early detection program, and the Field Station reports some of their current projects and visitors. GLC affiliate Dr. Stephen Vermette gives a peek at an upcoming paper, we give a rundown of recent GLC news, and we shine the spotlight on one of our graduate students. The newsletter is also posted as a news article on our website.

If you'd like to be on the mailing list for future editions of the newsletter, please email the GLC.”
