DURHAM Researchers from around the world are turning to the findings of scientists with the UNH College of Life Sciences and Agriculture as they work to solve some of the most critical agricultural and environmental issues facing the planet. Nearly 40 percent of the current and former UNH scientists recently listed among the world’s leading researchers are associated with the college, with the majority funded by the New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station.
A recent study published in PLOS Biology Journal ranked more than 6 million researchers in 22 disciplines and 176 subdisciplines based on citation metrics from 2019 data.

DURHAM – A University of New Hampshire College of Life Sciences and Agriculture food drive recently generated more than 12,500 meals at area food pantries after the college “came together while apart” to help reduce food insecurity. The effort is part of the college’s commitment to put belief into action by supporting the greater New Hampshire community, especially during this unprecedented time that has seen such grave economic impacts due to COVID-19.
“As a college that seeks to advance the sustainability of communities and ecosystems, we study and inform healthy production of food and the nutritional needs of those across New Hampshire. It is important to us in the College of Life Sciences and Agriculture that we find a way to support those across the state who are unsure of where their next meal comes from. I’m truly inspired by the giving nature of our college community and look forward to growing the impact next year!” said Anthony S. Davis
