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 associated with Idaho’s Center for Resilient Communities.
