2 ��Ƶ honorees receive President's Inclusive Excellence Awards Megan M Rogers Fri, 05/08/2026 - 10:50

��Ƶ graduate student Connor Antonio Diaz and Assistant Dean Patricia Gonzalez were among five systemwide recipients of the CU President’s Inclusive Excellence Awards this year. The annual awards honor individuals and units from across the University of Colorado who have demonstrated outstanding commitment and made significant contributions to building an environment where everyone can thrive.

Connor Antonio Diaz

A fourth-year graduate student in the Department of Geological Sciences, Diaz is striving to increase accessibility in STEM, improve pathways for underrepresented students and integrate inclusivity across educational, research and civic settings. By taking part in community and civic activities, he has learned strategies that inform his teaching and mentoring.

Diaz volunteers for the Denver Special Education Advisory Committee, a Denver Public Schools advisory group dedicated to improving outcomes for students with disabilities through collaborative and intentional community engagement. His activities have included providing technical reviews of policy documents, presenting on research-based recommendations to city and state officials, and contributing to legislation (Colorado House Bill 25-1017) to protect the rights of people with disabilities.

Diaz also volunteers for the Gigi’s Playhouse network of Down Syndrome Achievement Centers, where he helps design STEM teaching modules, trains behavioral therapists in STEM integration and leads family-focused science events.

In his lab activities for an introductory geology course, Diaz implemented multimodal instruction—i.e., introducing concepts using visual, tactile and verbal approaches—to engage students in learning through multiple cognitive pathways, which can be helpful for students with ADHD.

Patricia Gonzalez

The transformative impact of Gonzalez reaches within and far beyond her corner of ��Ƶ. In her role as assistant dean of the Office for Access and Community Engagement (ACE) in the College of Arts and Sciences, she supports students, faculty and staff. Among her first initiatives after arriving on campus in 2021 was the establishment of the ACE Mentoring Program for staff and faculty, pairing mentors and mentees to support greater understanding of the college and ��Ƶ.

Gonzalez is intentional about ensuring every member of the college, regardless of title or position, has a voice. She works to elevate the potential she sees in those whose talents might otherwise be overlooked.

As co-founder and co-chair of the JEDI Leaders Community of Practice, Gonzalez helped build a community of over 128 members across ��Ƶ. The structure and purpose of this engaged network of professionals was informed by Gonzalez’s clear vision of community, shared leadership and transparency. Her ability to cultivate a trusted, supportive environment has empowered JEDI leaders to engage in honest reflection, exchange strategies, learn from one another and build resilience.

Gonzalez also manages the Boulder County Latina League Empower Program, providing scholarships and student support, and leads the College of Arts and Sciences Action Plan 2.0 planning committee.

Beyond the college, her collaboration with the CU Police Department resulted in critical changes to police training, while her effort to ensure emergency alerts are delivered in multiple languages led to the improvement of safety and inclusion for thousands of students, faculty and staff. Gonzalez also played a vital role in campuswide efforts to ensure staff members receive parental leave upon hiring, creating parity with faculty and promoting a healthier, more humane work environment for all.

Gonzales holds a Doctor of Education.

��Ƶ recognized as Colorado's leading college blood donation site Megan M Rogers Thu, 05/07/2026 - 14:47

Members of Staff Council’s Blood Drive and Community Service Committee accepted the Campus Leadership in Giving Award at Vitalant’s annual Lifelines event.

��Ƶ has earned statewide recognition as the top college blood donor in Colorado, a distinction that reflects an extraordinary year of impact, leadership and community commitment through its 2025–26 academic year blood drives. Members of Staff Council’s Blood Drive and Community Service Committee accepted the Campus Leadership in Giving Award at Vitalant’s annual Lifelines event on April 29.

In partnership with Vitalant, ��Ƶ Staff Council played a central role in organizing and hosting four highly successful blood drives throughout the academic year. Together, they mobilized students, faculty and staff to step forward and support a critical community need—ensuring hospitals have access to lifesaving blood supplies.

One of the most meaningful highlights from these efforts was the introduction of 194 first-time blood donors. These individuals represent more than just a single donation; they are the future of Colorado’s blood supply. Many may never have donated without the university's outreach and advocacy, and their continued participation has the potential to save countless lives in the years ahead.

��Ƶ drives were not only impactful, they were consistently strong. The university collected an average of 52 units per day across the four drives, contributing to an impressive 619 units of red cell and whole blood donations. When including plasma and additional red cell units, the total climbed to 654 units for the year, underscoring the scale and success of the initiative.

Save the date: Blood drives Sept. 22–24

The real measure of this achievement lies in its impact on the community. These donations will help provide lifesaving blood products to an estimated 1,962 individuals across Boulder County. Behind that number are real stories: patients undergoing surgery, individuals battling chronic illness, accident victims, and families relying on the availability of safe blood.

This recognition is not just a milestone; it is a testament to the ��Ƶ community’s deep commitment to service and collective impact. Fueled by the generosity of students, faculty and staff, and supported through its long-standing partnership with Vitalant, the university is well-positioned to build on this momentum and expand its lifesaving impact in the years ahead.

Be sure to mark your calendars for Staff Council’s upcoming blood drives Sept. 22–24.

��Ƶ has been recognized by Vitalant as the top college blood donation site in the state of Colorado. Members of Staff Council accepted the Campus Leadership in Giving Award at the annual Lifelines event.

Distinguished Professor Lee Niswander wins Hazel Barnes Prize Megan M Rogers Wed, 04/29/2026 - 11:27

Bradley Worrell

Lee Niswander, distinguished professor in the ��Ƶ Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, has been awarded the 2026 Hazel Barnes Prize.

Established in 1991 by former Chancellor James Corbridge to honor the late Hazel Barnes, ��Ƶ professor of philosophy from 1953 to 1986, the $20,000 Hazel Barnes Prize celebrates the enriching interrelationship between teaching and research. It is the largest and most prestigious award funded by the university.

“Professor Niswander exemplifies the very best of ��Ƶ through groundbreaking research and a deep commitment to teaching and mentorship,” said Chancellor Justin Schwartz. “Her scholarly impact, departmental leadership and dedication to students reflect both the spirit of the Hazel Barnes Prize and the values Hazel Barnes herself championed. We are proud to honor Dr. Lee Niswander for her lasting contributions to our university and to her field.”

Inside the work of Lee Niswander

Niswander received her bachelor’s degree in chemistry from ��Ƶ, her master’s degree in biochemistry and genetics from University of Colorado Health Sciences Center (now CU Anschutz) and her doctorate in genetics from Case Western University. She received her postdoctoral degree in developmental biology from the University of California San Francisco.

Since 2017, Niswander has served as professor of molecular, cellular and developmental biology (MCDB) at ��Ƶ. She was the chair of MCDB from 2017 to 2025.

As head of the Niswander Lab, she and her group investigate mouse models of embryonic development to provide insights into fundamental developmental processes, major human birth defects and potential clinical therapies. Her studies have revealed the molecular mechanisms that control formation of the central and peripheral nervous system, as well as lung, limb and neuromuscular development.

Niswander’s current focus is on early brain formation and birth defects that arise when normal brain formation goes awry, like failure of neural tube closure or maintenance of neural progenitor cells, resulting in spina bifida or microcephaly.

The Niswander Lab uses the mouse embryo and human-induced pluripotent stem cells as models of human development. The lab’s studies encompass genetics, epigenetics, environmental factors and live imaging to couple molecular insights to cell behaviors. Through collaborative efforts, Niswander Lab researchers are also exploring the genetic causes of neural tube defects in humans.

Niswander is the recipient of multiple awards and honors, including being named a Pew Scholar in Biomedical Research by the Pew Charitable Trusts and receiving the Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers from the U.S. president. Additionally, she was a recipient of the Harland Winfield Mossman Developmental Biologists Award from the American Association of Anatomists in 2002, and she was an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute from 1997 to 2014.

Niswander was conferred a distinguished professorship by CU President Todd Saliman in 2024.

In 2026, Niswander received an Edwin G. Conklin Medal, which is awarded annually by the Society for Developmental Biology (SDB) to recognize a developmental biologist who has made and is continuing to make extraordinary research contributions to the field and is an excellent mentor, helping train the next generation of outstanding scientists.

In the words of colleagues

In letters supporting Niswander’s nomination for the Hazel Barnes Prize, colleagues noted her many contributions to MCDB and her skills as both a researcher and an instructor.

“(Niswander) embodies the best in teaching, research and scholarship and is wholly deserving of this highest honor,” said Robin Dowell, professor and associate chair of MCDB and the BioFrontiers Institute.

“She is a highly respected vertebrate developmental geneticist who had made major contributions over the years to our understanding of fundamental events in vertebrate embryonic development, including limb and lung development and neural tube closure. What makes her an ideal candidate for the Hazel Barnes Prize is how she integrates her research into her teaching at undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral levels.”

Tin Tin Su, professor and chair of MCDB, lauded Niswander as a “highly respected developmental geneticist who made major contributions to our understanding of limb and lung development and neural tube closure.”

Su noted Niswander has produced 123 peer-reviewed papers with more than 20,000 citations. Additionally, Su commended Niswander for the 45 graduate and postdoctoral students she trained and for her devoted attention to undergraduate education, including teaching undergraduate classes.

“I am thrilled and honored to receive the Hazel Barnes Prize. I thank MCDB and professors Tin Tin Su and Robin Dowell for the nomination,” Niswander said. “This award represents numerous research discoveries by many students and postdoctoral fellows throughout my career.”

She added that she is pleased that the Hazel Barnes award recognizes her focus on the confluence of teaching and research. One accomplishment she is particularly proud of during her tenure as MCDB chair was the creation of a partnership with Front Range Community College (FRCC) to provide summer research opportunities in ��Ƶ Life Science labs to support FRCC students transferring to ��Ƶ to earn a bachelor’s degree.

Niswander concluded, “To all who have contributed to my broader success, I am deeply grateful, and this award is shared with you.”

Distinguished Professor Lee Niswander, whose research seeks to provide insights into fundamental developmental processes, major human birth defects and potential clinical therapies, has received ��Ƶ's most prestigious honor for 2026. The Hazel Barnes Prize each year recognizes a faculty member who exemplifies groundbreaking research and a deep commitment to teaching.

The prestigious American Academy of Arts & Sciences has announced its newest members, and they include ��Ƶ affiliates William Penuel and Jun Ye.

Penuel and Ye join 250 other leaders in academia, the arts, industry, journalism, philanthropy, policy, research and science elected in 2026.

The academy, chartered in 1780, was established to recognize accomplished individuals and engage them in addressing the greatest challenges facing the young republic. The first members elected to the academy include President George Washington, who said—in his first annual message to Congress in 1790, “Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness.”

“Election to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences is among the highest honors a scholar can receive, and this recognition speaks to ��Ƶ longstanding strength as a center of ideas and discovery,” said Chancellor Justin Schwartz. "The induction of professors William Penuel and Jun Ye adds to our university’s tradition of faculty recognized among the nation’s most distinguished scholars and affirms ��Ƶ role in advancing knowledge at the highest level.”

William Penuel

Penuel is a Distinguished Professor of Learning Sciences and Human Development in the School of Education and the Institute of Cognitive Science and a faculty fellow at the Renée Crown Wellness Institute at ��Ƶ.

His research examines how curriculum materials, assessments and professional learning experiences can support teachers in creating equitable and engaging STEM learning environments, particularly in science. He also studies how contemplative practices and critical inquiry help educators cultivate compassionate, inclusive learning environments and schools.

A leading scholar in research‑practice partnerships, Penuel investigates how long‑term collaborations between educators and researchers can address systemic inequities related to race, gender and sexual diversity and language.

Across his research, he works in close partnership with educators and education leaders to build and understand classrooms that honor students’ experiences, broaden whose knowledge is valued and connect instruction to learners’ identities and interests. He uses a wide range of research methods, including one he developed with colleagues called design-based implementation research.

Penuel is an elected member of the National Academy of Education and an American Educational Research Association fellow. He has published two books on research-practice partnerships: “Creating Research-Practice Partnerships in Education” (co-author; Harvard Education Press) and “Connecting Research and Practice for Educational Improvement” (co-editor; Routledge). He co-edited “The Foundational Handbook on Improvement Research in Education” (Rowman & Littlefield).

Last year, he co-authored his most recent book about compassion and dignity as an essential framework for building caring and inclusive schools, “Creating Compassionate Change in School Communities: Leading Together to Address Everyday Suffering in Schools” (Jossey-Bass).
