The Find a Researcher database contains listings of University of Utah faculty and graduate students who are research topic experts and potential research collaborators.
You may search for people by entering names, research keywords, departments, international experience keywords and equipment.
For a more complete view of international research and activities, you can use the university's Global U Inventory site.

Many of the same features that you are able to use with a Google search will work with Find A Researcher! You can use these tools to find exactly what you're looking for.
- When you search for multiple words, Find A Researcher will return results containing all of the words listed.
- Searching for modern dance jazz will return results containing all three of the words modern, dance, and jazz.
- If you separate individual words with an upper-case OR, Find A Researcher will return results containing any of the words in your query.
- Searching for chemistry OR biology will return results containing either (or both) of the words chemistry or biology.
- You can surround a phrase with quotation marks to have Find A Researcher search for that exact phrase.
- Searching for "seismic hazard assessment" will return results containing the exact phrase seismic hazard assessment.
- If you prepend a word or phrase with a -, Find A Researcher will return results that do not contain that word or phrase.
- Searching for stereo -microscope will return results containing the word stereo, and which do not contain the word microscope

Professor Emeritus, Mining Engineering
Research Summary: Application of Pressure Balancing Techniques at the West Elk Coal Mine. The objective of this study is to test the principles of pressure balancing to reduce the risk of spontaneous combustion fires in coal mines. This objective will be accomplished by selecting a site for pressure chambers at the West Elk mine, CO, constructing and equipping these chambers with safety devices and gas monitors, conducting pressure balancing experiments, evaluating the results, and disseminating the outcomes.

BRYN TM DENTINGER
Associate Professor, School Of Biological Sciences
Curator of Mycology, Natural History Museum of Utah
Research Summary: My lab studies fungal diversity using collections-based research, integrating fieldwork and molecular data to discover and understand the awesome and often weird world of Fungi. We routinely employ DNA barcoding to identify fungi collected from all over the world. More recently, genome sequencing has become standard practice for phylogenetic inference, metagenomic discovery in complex samples, and comparative approaches to elucidate natural product biosynthesis and genome evolution.
