Michigan Research is the University of Michigan’s premier monthly e-newsletter, produced by the Office of the Vice President for Research. Discover how U-M researchers are driving innovation, solving real-world challenges, and advancing knowledge in every field.
A songbird that returns to the same patch of forest after wintering in Peru. Herbicide drifting into fields nobody sprayed. Microplastics in the air over Michigan. Ways technology can reinforce social inequality. These are just some of the topics that researchers are addressing in the University of Michigan’s College of Literature, Science, and the Arts. They are explored in this month’s Michigan Research, which also includes stories about an economist mapping Michigan’s next thirty years, cognitive scientists reading AI for clues about the mind, and a humanities expert making the case for slow thinking.
