In the past year, Goucher faculty members have published and presented on topics that highlight the global scope of their research as well as subjects that explore ideas closer to home.

This summer, Goucher students are working on poems inspired by rail travel around Europe, exploring Alaskan parks and cities as world-building research for a short fiction series, and traveling to Scotland to research and write a horror novel.

Verónica Segarra, associate professor and the Maryland E-Nnovation Endowed Chair in Biological Sciences and Chemistry, was named an American Society for Cell Biology Fellow.
