Congratulations to Laura Meredith, the 2026 Keating Family BIO5 Professor!

Meredith, a professor in the Department of Hydrology and Atmospheric Science, was selected because of her translational work in addressing global challenges related to climate change and ecosystem resilience, dedication to advancing the transdisciplinary field of ecosystem genomics at the University of Arizona (and beyond), and extensive contributions towards building capacity and community in areas relevant to BIO5’s mission.

The Keating Family BIO5 Professor is a distinction given to a BIO5 faculty member who exemplifies the characteristics of interdisciplinary biosciences research excellence, collegiality, spirit of mentorship and engagement, and strong communication skills. It is made possible thanks to the generosity of the Keating family who have been BIO5 supporters and friends since its founding.
