Biology professor Adam Summers was awarded the 2025-2026 Rome Prize in Environmental Arts and Humanities from the American Academy in Rome. The Rome Prize is among the world’s most prestigious fellowship programs and provides the rare opportunity for scholars and artists across a range of subfields to collaborate. The Rome Prize dedicated to the environmental arts and humanities, introduced this year, is designed for collaborative efforts between artists and scholars working on projects that help expand our understanding of how human beings relate to, experience, and process their encounters with the natural world. 

Congratulations, Adam!
