Under ultraviolet light, the yellow fever mosquito (Aedes aegypti) in Lee Haines’s microscope glows bright: a sign that it has fed on a sugar concoction spiked with a fluorescent dye and a mosquito-killing agent. Haines, an entomologist at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, is part of a team studying how the drug nitisinone can be used to kill blood-feeding insects.
“The UV illumination created striking colours from both the tiny mosquito and the condensation that formed beneath the cold Petri dish,” says photographer Shayanta Chowdhury. As a chemistry PhD student at Notre Dame, Chowdhury uses lasers and spectrometers to study molecules attached to nanoparticles.

“It’s not like those theological concerns about Mormonism disappeared in 2012, but by the time we got to 2012, the issue wasn’t Romney’s Mormonism anymore,” David Campbell, a professor of American politics and religion at the University of Notre Dame, told me. “And so a lot of members of the LDS church thought, well, this issue’s over now.”

The term seems straightforward. It’s a cease-fire. The firing that once constituted a war? That’s ceased. Right? In reality, that’s almost never the case. I spoke to Laurie Nathan, a professor at Notre Dame who has been a U.N. senior mediation adviser and a mediator in cease-fire negotiations. He told me that cease-fires were pretty much always violated.

When modern ceasefires do work, their negotiation tends to take time and patience, and granular expertise on the part of the mediators. After studying 42 comprehensive peace agreements between 1989 and 2018, Madhav Joshi, Matthew Hauenstein and Jason Quinn at the University of Notre Dame found that success requires an average of 1,570 days of detailed bargaining.

“It is a whole new world,” Patrick Corrigan, a law professor at the University of Notre Dame, told DealBook. The new rules appear to allow underwriters to use their banks’ research to sell investors on an I.P.O., as long as they comply with rules meant to ensure the impartiality and objectivity of the research, Corrigan said. The risk, Corrigan said, was that deal teams become a “conduit for an analyst recommendation that is subtly biased.”

“The Black church has been such a cornerstone for the Democratic Party for such a long time,” David Campbell, a political scientist at Notre Dame, told me at an Aspen Institute conference, “that we’ve become very accustomed to African American candidates using religious language, Jesse Jackson perhaps being the most notable example of that. We’re not as used to hearing white clergy in particular running on the Democratic side.”

This web page, which invites users to look up the number of immigrants supposedly arrested on charges of criminal activity in American cities and towns, belongs to a subgenre of Trumpian gestures that are menacing and sophomoric at the same time. “Grotesque and terrifying and juvenile,” is how Ernesto Verdeja, a genocide-prevention expert at the University of Notre Dame, described it to me.

Notre Dame law professor Derek Muller has an equally critical, but less apocalyptic, view. He says the court seems to want to wash its hands of political cases, the result being maximum gerrymandering, whether the state is Alabama or California. He too sees the court's most recent decisions in voting rights cases as limiting how Congress can go about protecting minority voters. That said, there are ways that Congress could still act, he says. "Even if you did very simple restrictions, such as…you can only engage in redistricting once a decade or you can't change the rules for redistricting more than a year before an election. Those are ways to prevent some of the opportunism we have," Muller observes.
