Hansen Seminar: Amy Rosenzweig
Methane emissions, which are among the most potent greenhouse gases, are a critical concern because of their ability to absorb the sun’s heat and warm the Earth’s atmosphere. Bioinorganic chemist Amy Rosenzweig says methanotrophic bacteria, commonly found in soils, wetlands and marshes, use copper from the environment to convert harmful methane into useful energy and chemicals.
Rosenzweig, Weinberg Family Distinguished Professor of Life Sciences at Illinois’ Northwestern University, discusses this process as featured speaker for USU's 2020 R. Gaurth Hansen Seminar series, Wednesday Dec. 2. She presents “Biological Methane Oxidation” at 4 p.m. Mountain via Zoom. Hosted by USU’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, the lecture is open to all. For Zoom access information, visit: https://chem.usu.edu/seminars/index
Rosenzweig is the 13th annual Hansen Seminar speaker. The seminar series honors the late R. Gaurth Hansen (1920-2002), a renowned USU professor, researcher and administrator.
