Welcome to our new college publication, Continuum. With this magazine, we hope to share news and
discoveries from the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences, including academic programs, Ohio State University Extension, the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, and the Agricultural Technical Institute.
In this inaugural issue, you'll find pages filled with examples of work in our three Signature Areas: Food Security, Production and Human Health; Environmental Quality and Sustainability; and Advanced
Bioenergy and Biobased Products. These three areas, so critical to the state's and the nation's economy and future, align with our greatest strengths as a college.
We join with you, our stakeholders, alumni, and friends, to address these pressing issues and needs:
-- Global Food Production and Security
-- Human Health and Nutrition
-- Emerging Diseases
-- Environmental Sustainability
-- Renewable/Green Resources and Products 
-- Climate Change
-- Renewable Energy
I would like to hear your thoughts and perspectives on these issues and on this new publication. Contact me at Moser.2@osu.edu or (614) 292-6164.
