The College of Agriculture, Health and Natural Resources (CAHNR) recently celebrated another year of innovative research during an event organized by Kumar Venkitanarayanan, CAHNR’s associate dean for research and graduate education, and his team.
“These grants support projects that address critical issues in sustainable agriculture, human, animal, and environmental health, and many other areas,” says Indrajeet Chaubey, CAHNR dean. “They also support the goal that underlies everything we do at CAHNR: to find solutions that benefit communities here in Connecticut and far beyond.”
In fiscal year 2024, CAHNR faculty secured $34.5 million in new research awards, underscoring the continued impact and importance of their work. This achievement marks a significant trajectory of growth. Since 2019, CAHNR’s annual research funding has grown from $20.7 million. Additionally, research expenditures reached a five-year high at nearly $34.9 million.
“I am immensely proud of our faculty and staff whose dedication and innovation contributed to the incredible success in securing grants” says Venkitanarayanan. “It is a testament of the impact of their research in advancing the frontiers of knowledge and solving real-world challenges.”
The celebration brought together leaders from across UConn, including Vice President for Research, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship Pamir Alpay and Chief of Staff Michelle Williams, to recognize the faculty’s accomplishments.
“CAHNR continues to embrace UConn’s proud history as an agricultural school while building programs and conducting research into the fields that are changing the world for the better,” says Alpay.
