Local News Updates from the Office of Regional & Community Relations:

The new Fall line-up on UW360 includes a segment on using clean and abundant solar cells to one day power hand-held phones and other devices, and on how beekeepers at UW Farm are using natural methods to study “disappearing disease” in bees. Shows preview Sunday nights at 9 pm (Comcast channel 27) or can be viewed anytime online at uwtv.org/uw360.

Award-winning farmer's markets in neighborhoods throughout Seattle are the brainchild of UW alumna Chris Curtis ’73, founder of the Neighborhood Farmer’s Market Alliance. To learn more, see the Northeast and Southeast sections of the UW in Seattle Neighborhoods web portals.

In the first year that nurses were included in the annual survey of Seattle’s Best Doctors by Seattle Metropolitan magazine, top-ranked UW School of Nursing alumni represented over 50% of the top-ranked nurses.
