National Science Foundation: UB alumna was research pioneer in Antarctica

An article on the Discoveries page of the National Science Foundation's Web site looks at a pioneering research team that made history 40 years ago as the first U.S. women to conduct research on the continent. The researchers included Eileen McSaveney, a UB alumnus who was the sole female undergraduate student in geology at UB at the time. The article is based on stories about the research team that were published in the Antarctic Sun and on Live Science. The article also appeared in U.S. News & World Report.
