MagLab Director Named to National Academy of Sciences

Greg Boebinger, the director of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, has been named a member of the National Academy of Sciences, an esteemed designation that recognizes his distinguished career in physics. Membership in the National Academy of Sciences is considered one of the highest honors a scientist can receive. We are so thrilled to have such influential scientists here in Innovation Park.

Invasive Plant Removal

A group of MagLab scientists and students recently took the initiative to remove some invasive species along our Central Pond Loop trail. They cleared out 8 bags worth of Coral Ardisia which is destructive to the area and inhibits the growth of native plant species. The group is part of the Environmental Species Program (ESP), a community organization at FSU that exists to foster a network of environmentally progressive students. Thanks for your commitment to helping our ecosystem flourish, ESP! We truly appreciate you (and so do the plants)!
