University Research Professors

Richard Brown

Sara Iverson

Professors Richard Brown and Sara Iverson have been asked to join an exclusive group at Dalhousie – they’ve been awarded the title of University Research Professor, an honour granted to just 15 Dalhousie faculty members at one time.

The title of University Research Professor is granted to 15 individual Dalhousie faculty members who have achieved distinction in scholarship. It was first granted in 2002 and has a five-year term.

“It’s very nice to be recognized in this way,” says Dr. Iverson, who is interested in how marine mammals adapt to and exploit their environments.
