A collaboration between scientists from Penn State and the country of Georgia is enhancing research and extension ties while helping the former Soviet republic to protect crops essential to its economic well-being.
Penn State researchers have developed a low-cost, RNA-based technology to detect and measure biomarkers, which can help decode the body’s physiology. The presence of protein biomarkers can indicate chronic or acute conditions, from arthritis to cancer to bacterial infections, for which conventional tests can cost anywhere from $100 to upwards of $1,000. The new technology can perform the same measurement for about a dollar.
Planning is well underway for Penn State's 2023 Ag Progress Days exposition, which will be held Aug. 8-10 at the Russell E. Larson Agricultural Research Center at Rock Springs, 9 miles southwest of State College on state Route 45.

Dean Rick Roush is joined by resident expert Christina Grozinger, director of the Center for Pollinator Research and the Publius Vergilius Maro Professor of Entomology, to discuss all things pollinators. Learn about the importance of pollinators, what’s causing pollinator decline, and what you can do to help. They also discuss research collaborations across Penn State, as well as Penn State Extension and other outreach programs.
The tendency of cities to trap heat — a phenomenon called the “urban heat island,” often referred to as the UHI effect — can lead to dangerous temperatures in the summer months, but a new study conducted by Penn State researchers suggests that certain urban factors can reduce this effect.
Visitors from Pennsylvania and surrounding states interested in the forest-products industry and the sustainable management of forest resources will gather at the 2023 Forest Products Equipment and Technology Exposition, June 9-10 at Penn State's Ag Progress Days site at Rock Springs.

The main focus of 4-H is learning through hands-on as well as digital projects, alongside screened adult volunteers. 4-H Offers a Learning Experience for Everyone, from raising livestock to programming robots. The programs delivered through Penn State Extension with County Educators providing aces to learning and fun in our communities.
Each year the Agricultural Safety and Health team highlight a safety topic important to the everyday lives of farm families. This year learn about the hazards of all-terrain vehicles or ATV's which are commonly used on the farm and for recreational activities. The team will show the potential for a rollover incident and ways to reduce the risk of an overturn. There will be two demonstrations at 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 pm on Tuesday and Thursday which will show the hazards related to ATV usage and proper use of protective safety gear for riders. On Wednesday, an agricultural rescue demonstration will take place at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. to help prepare responders. The Farm Safety Demonstration Area (SD) will host Penn State Department of Agriculture and Biological Engineering faculty who will demonstrate the safe use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV).
