The Center was proud to be amongst four winning cohorts in the #BrookandBeyond Challenge. The award funding will help us advance our low nitrogen septic system to receive approval for installation in residential homes to address Long Island’s nitrogen pollution problem.
The inaugural #BrookAndBeyond Challenge concluded on 12/5 at @StonyBrookCEWIT.
The @stonybrooku flagship innovation program featured 8 faculty-led teams pitching breakthrough technologies after a two-month innovation sprint.

I enjoyed spending the afternoon with @stonybrookalum, @SoMAS, and @CEASSBU supporters at the @StonyBrookFB game yesterday—especially welcoming @RepLaLota, a strong advocate for @StonyBrookU and @StonyBrookMed. Thank you to all who cheered the Seawolves to victory!

#LongIslandSound’s peak of hypoxia (low dissolved oxygen) activity is often in mid-Aug, just what #LISound Partnership’s new forecasting model predicted for this year. See @EPA's "Success in the Urban Sea" story map: arcg.is/1jHyfK1 @eparegion2 @SeaGrant @CTSeaGrant
