“Stanford is building a critical mass of people that are specialists on different components of ecosystems I could never hope to specialize in myself. It’s a great opportunity to take my work, add other people’s expertise, and springboard it to a new level.” –Adam Pellegrini, new assistant professor

🌳 One factor that could support healthier cities in 2026? Access to urban parks.
Research shows that across the U.S., cities with more accessible parks are linked to higher levels of physical activity. Improving ways to connect to existing parks can strengthen public health. stanford.io/44QYEz2
