Lecturer
Anthony Zukoff serves as an Instructor of Entomology at the Southwest Research and Extension Center (SWREC), part of Kansas State University's Research and Extension system. Based in Garden City, Kansas, his primary responsibility is extension outreach in entomology, with a focus on addressing current and emerging insect pest issues affecting crop production in Western Kansas. He actively communicates through social media, particularly on X (Twitter) as @WestKSBugs, to disseminate timely information to stakeholders. His research and extension interests are deeply rooted in agricultural entomology, specifically the management of insect pests in major field crops of the region. These include alfalfa, corn, sorghum, soybeans, sunflower, wheat, and cotton. Additionally, he has shown interest in pollinator conservation, as demonstrated by his work on monarch butterfly and pollinator habitat development. His approach emphasizes practical, integrated pest management (IPM) strategies that are critical for sustainable agriculture in the challenging environments of Western Kansas. Dr. Zukoff's recent scholarly output includes the 2025 crop-specific insect pest management guides, which collectively cover the major field crops grown in Kansas. These publications represent a systematic effort to provide up-to-date, research-based recommendations for pest control, reflecting the dynamic nature of pest pressures and the need for adaptive management solutions. His work bridges the gap between entomological research and on-farm application, ensuring that producers have access to the latest strategies for protecting their crops. Scientific awards and honors are not mentioned in the available information. Regarding academic advising and research funding, the provided materials do not indicate any graduate students supervised by Dr. Zukoff nor any details about grants he may have secured. His role appears to be primarily focused on extension and outreach rather than graduate mentoring or large-scale research projects requiring external funding. Anthony Zukoff is embedded within the Southwest Research and Extension Center, a key component of Kansas State University's network of research and extension centers across the state. The SWREC conducts applied research and delivers extension programs tailored to the agricultural and natural resource needs of Western Kansas, and Dr. Zukoff's entomology expertise is a vital part of this mission.

Assistant Professor
Eram Alam serves as Assistant Professor of the History of Science at Harvard University, based in Science Center 361. Her research critically examines intersections of medicine, migration, and power within global historical frameworks, with particular focus on twentieth-century dynamics. Alam's scholarship centers on the history of medicine through lenses of globalization, race, and postcolonial theory. Her book The Care of Foreigners analyzes how Cold War-era immigration policies transformed temporary reliance on Asian physicians into a permanent US healthcare feature, revealing systemic segmentation where immigrant doctors serve vulnerable populations. Current projects include co-editing Ordering the Human: Global Science and Racial Reason (Columbia University Press) examining race as political technology in scientific knowledge production, and The Logistical Body investigating pandemic-exposed tensions between hypermobility and embodied labor. Her publication trajectory demonstrates consistent engagement with structural inequities in global health systems.
