Endowments have allowed the Sarver Heart Center to attract and retain top cardiovascular physicians and researchers who, in turn, have been successful in securing major research funding. Traditional funding sources, including revenue from patient care and state funding, barely support clinical, administrative and teaching activities. That’s why private funding is so important to advancing the prevention and cure of cardiovascular diseases. “Without endowments, the Sarv- er Heart Center would be rather The Sarver Heart Center is located at the Arizona Health Sciences Center, which is just north of mediocre,” Ewy said. “But thanks the main UA campus. to endowments and the donors who have created them, we have successful research efforts have cans dying from cardiovascular dis- achieved an internationally out- led to improved prevention and ease down to 34 percent, Ewy said. standing reputation.” patient care.

47 UA VISITOR GUIDE SPRING/SUMMER 2010 www.arizona.edu Taming a Tree- Ring Forest The ﬁ rst ofﬁ cial curator of the UA’s Laboratory of Tree- Ring Research is responsible for cataloging the world’s largest collection of tree rings, which includes a 10,000-year-old specimen. www.arizona.edu UA VISITOR GUIDE SPRING/SUMMER 2010

“We hold the world’s largest collection of tree rings and it’s an ir- replaceable, one-of-a-kind resource of environmental and cultural history.” Creasman, also an associate research professor of dendrochronol- ogy, comes to the University from Blinn College in Texas, where he taught anthropology. He received a bachelor’s degree in anthropology and philosophy from the University of Maine in 2003 and a master’s degree in anthropology from Texas A&M in 2005 before going on to pursue a doctorate in nautical archeology at Texas A&M. Most of Creasman’s research has focused on nautical archeology, which at fi rst might seem to have little to do with the world of tree ring research. But when you take into consideration the fact that up until 1850 boats were made of wood, Creasman’s work with ship- wrecks and shipwrecked materials in Egypt bears a clear connection with work being done in the UA lab, where researchers in multiple Pearce Paul Creasman was hired as the ﬁ rst-ever curator for the Laboratory of Tree-Ring disciplines look to wood to answer Research and is charged with managing the UA’s massive tree ring collection. questions about archaeology, geol- ogy, ecology, climatology and more.

The water wall also allows natural light to enter the house. Other SEED[pod] features include natural ventilation, passive lighting elements and an outdoor deck made of permeable material, allowing water to pass through to the ground below, replenishing the groundwater. SEED[pod] received international attention during the 2009 U.S. Department of Energy’s Solar Decathlon on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., where it was part of a competition of 20 team projects. “When the SEED[pod] returned from Washington, we placed it next to the Underwood Laboratory to demonstrate the many different ways in which the college studies and researches sustainable design and planning,” said Janice Cervelli, dean of the college.
