Eastern biology Professors Barbara Murdoch and Matthew Graham have made a discovery that challenges long-held assumptions about one of nature’s most feared substances. The two professors co-authored a study that identifies microbial communities living in scorpion venom, a substance previously believed to be sterile.
The Thread City Jazz Trio, Eastern’s faculty jazz band named affectionately for its native Willimantic, released its second album, “Keeney Never Stops,” last July. The album reimagines several jazz standards, as well as popular songs from the 1960s to today.
Eastern hosted an all-star band of New Orleans musicians on Jan. 10, raising $15,000 for two local antihunger organizations. The Take Me to the River All-Stars Live presented an evening of funk, soul, and rhythm in a packed FAIC Concert Hall, with all proceeds benefiting Willimantic’s Covenant Soup Kitchen and Eastern’s Shawn’s Cupboard food pantry for food-insecure students.
