The UMD experts list highlights faculty and staff who are experts on given topics, and can be available as a resource for journalists as they work on stories. You can find experts by choosing a category below, using the main site search with the query “expertise [the name or category you're looking for],” or by scrolling down to find a specific person (sorted alphabetically by last name).
Expert listings, with links to Duluth-based individuals and their research publications, can also be found on the University of Minnesota's research experts database.
Please reach out to UMPR with any questions. We'd be happy to help.
