Research

The UNF Nature and Health Lab, housed within IERE, serves as a collaborative hub for interdisciplinary research on the dynamic relationship between people and the natural world. From studying how nature supports human well-being to understanding how human activity impacts ecosystems, the lab drives inquiry at the intersection of environment and health.

Through IERE’s Research Seed Grants, faculty across UNF are empowered to launch innovative, cross-disciplinary projects that address urgent environmental challenges—laying the foundation for future external funding and real-world impact.
