It was a year that changed everything.
In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, the University of Arizona responded swiftly to the challenges presented by an unprecedented public health crisis. The entire Wildcat community – from virologists to public health experts to psychologists and everyone in between – contributed their time, energy and expertise to help the university and the nation with life-saving safety efforts and long-term mitigation strategies.
In between, the world watched as UArizona researchers tagged an asteroid, explored previously unanswered questions about the Maya civilization and, yes, figured out what s up with all those crane flies.
