We are building the future of health care in Missouri and embracing technology that connects beyond campus to improve lives. The NextGen Precision Health Institute will link rural clinics with experts from around the world. These partnerships will revolutionize how we serve our state —but they are just the latest way we are making excellent care accessible to everyone. Our community also uses teleconferencing to support medical professionals and social media to inform mental health outreach. All of these resources help Missourians and bring more value to society.On this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast, Chancellor Cartwright talks with Dr. Karen Edison, who is professor emerita of dermatology and senior medical director of the Missouri Telehealth Network and Show-Me Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (Show-Me ECHO); and Kelli Buchanan, who is a master’s student in public health. Together, they discuss how our faculty, staff and students use MU innovations to create a healthier world.

At the University of Missouri, our students can get an exceptional, hands-on education with access to world-class faculty, state-of-the-art spaces and even a working preschool classroom. But a Mizzou education also goes beyond the classroom. Innovative teaching tools such as virtual reality, online programs and more create comprehensive and immersive learning opportunities that aren’t limited to our campus — or even to Missouri. These boundless resources inspire discovery and enable our community to excel across distances and disciplines.On this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast, Chancellor Cartwright talks with Danielle Oprean, an assistant professor in the College of Education’s School of Information Science & Learning Technologies; and Celina Castleman, a junior majoring in human development and family science with an emphasis in child development and education who is minoring in psychology. Celina is also a student-teacher in MU’s Child Development Laboratory. Together, they discuss how Tigers transform our understanding of what makes a successful classroom.

Every day across campus, Tigers combine their creativity with groundbreaking research to push the boundaries of education and scholarship. At Mizzou, an ice cream parlor can also be a cutting-edge laboratory, and a floral shop can be a thriving classroom as well as a successful business. This capacity to bridge disciplines and forge new innovations inside and outside the classroom is what makes our community —and their successes —Mizzou Made. On this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast, Chancellor Cartwright talks with two students in MU’sCollege of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources: Emily Koch is a junior majoring in agricultural education who works at Tiger Garden, a floral shop run by the Division of Plant Sciences; and Grace Frisella is a junior majoring in food science and nutrition who works at Buck’s Ice Cream, an ice cream parlor run by the Food Science Program. They discuss the ways art, science, entrepreneurship and learning come together at Mizzou to give students the tools they need to excel.

Hands-on learning is the bedrock of a Mizzou education. Since 1911, the Department of Geological Sciences’Branson Field Laboratory has regularly hosted students from Mizzou and other universities across the country. This lab remains the longest continuously running site of its kind in the United States. Whether it’s our geology researchers analyzing rocks in the field or visiting artists mentoring students on campus, Tigers continue to enhance society with the work they do inside the classroom and around the world.On this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast, Chancellor Cartwright talks with Miriam Barquero-Molina, the director of the Geology Field Program and assistant teaching professor in the Department of Geological Sciences, and Kimberly Moore, a doctoral student in the Department of Geological Sciences. They discuss the geological distinctions of our campus and our state, as well as why studying the ancient foundations of our planet can help us better understand our collective future.

Student government is a more than 100-year tradition at Mizzou — that’s older than Memorial Stadium or even our beloved mascot, Truman the Tiger. The Missouri Students Association (MSA) is one of the largest student government organizations on campus, and it represents undergraduates from across the disciplines. MSA members contribute to standing committees alongside faculty and staff and pass legislation that helps guide our university’s collective future.On  this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast, Chancellor Cartwright talks with two MSA leaders: President Jennifer Sutterer, a senior double majoring in political science and philosophy; and Senate Speaker Jacob Addington, a senior majoring in journalism. They discuss the ins and outs of the legislative process as well as the many unique ways MSA contributes to life at Mizzou.

For 180 years, the University of Missouri has pioneered new advances in education. We taught the first course on engineering west of the Mississippi River, and our world-class School of Journalism developed the revolutionary Missouri Method of learning by doing. As our community continues to evolve, so do our learning practices and resources. From a collection of dime novels to 3D scanners, on campus and online, our faculty, staff and students constantly expand the ways we all learn and research.On this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast episode, Chancellor Cartwright talks with Navadeep Khanal, e-learning librarian and web development administrator; and Courtney Gillie, a library information specialist who recently earned a master’s from MU in information science and learning technologies, library and information science.

The University of Missouri is —literally —out of this world. Our engineering students envision the future of rocketry, our faculty study the geology of distant moons and our journalism alumni lead podcasts for NASA. Even our Laws Observatory enables us to explore the far reaches of the universe from right here in Columbia. Since the Apollo Missions, our Mizzou family has been a national leader in space research, and we continue to open up new pathways for interstellar discovery and reshape the way we think about life on Earth.On this week’s Inside Mizzou podcast, Chancellor Cartwright talks with Linda Godwin, a former NASA astronaut and retired professor of physics and astronomy, and Jordyn Lucas, a PhD student in biochemistry. Jordyn also works in Professor Donald Burke-Agüero’s laboratory as part of a NASA-funded project that uses ribonucleic acid (RNA) to explore the origins of life. They discuss our community’s rich contributions to space discovery, as well as the many ways we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible across the universe.

The University of Missouri may sit – as we like to say - in the middle of the middle of the country, but the reach of our campus and community is global. Our students, faculty and staff represent six continents. And every year, we send more than 1,000 Tigers abroad to gain vital learning and scholarly experiences that connect us even more to the world. Here and abroad, the boundless ambition of our people drives our boundless potential.
