HACLab – University of Idaho

Led by Dr. Erich Seamon, the University of Idaho’s Health, Agriculture, and Climate (HAC) research laboratory engages in transdisciplinary research to model and visualize the spatiotemporal dynamics of human health, climate, and agriculture, as well as other related factors. We are funded by Idaho’s Institute for Modeling, Collaboration, and Innovation (IMCI).

Seamon and Collaborators Awarded $200k NIH COBRE Supplemental to Model Spatiotemporal Effects on Maternal Health

A U of I project, funded by the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) will model how differing factors effect maternal health.

Machine Learning Paper Exploring Temperament and Pre-Term Birth Status Published in Global Pediatrics

Our work that connects machine learning with pre-term birth status outcomes is now published in the journal, Global Pediatrics. This work is in conjunction with over 20 differing researchers worldwide.

University of Idaho Led Project Receives $6M to Study Rural Perceptions of Climate Change

A U of I led project (Co-PI Seamon) will receive $6M in funding from NSF to investigate how people in rural communities perceive the extent of climate change. The award is multi-institutional, including the University of Idaho, the University of South Carolina, and the University of Nevada.

Spatial Microsimulation Paper in Population, Space and Place

Our recent work to use spatial microsimulation techniques to estimate health parameters in the state of Idaho is now accessible in the journal, Population, Space and Place.
