Performed with the Young@Heart Chorus, the Springfield SciTech Band, and the Springfield Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players on November 16, 2019 at the Academy of Music in Northampton. In addition, Mark was commissioned by Y@H to write seven arrangements for the chorus and the SSO players, including "Medley from Bizet's CARMEN," "Kiss" by Prince, "Elderly Woman Behind the Counter In a Small Town" by Pearl Jam, and Bob Dylan's "Forever Young."

Maria Alexandra Gomez was a Co-PI on National Science Foundation (NSF) project: MRI: Expansion of the Molecular Education and Research Consortium in Undergraduate Computational Chemistry (MERCURY) via Addition of High Performance Computers awarded to Furman University. The project is for three years.

Goodwin worked with colleagues at UC Santa Barbara and UC Berkeley to co-organize a conference on the topic "Mediating Deep Time," addressing the ways media can expose us to and ask us to think through radically long-term perspectives even in a time of climate change, mass extinction, and the “Anthropocene.” The .

In August 2022, Greenbaum was selected to be a featured performer on the final 50th Anniversary Gala Concert of the National Flute Associations’ Convention in Chicago where she performed a 20” set of klezmer including a world premier of her Yiddish March composed for the occasion. The audience in attendance was not shy as they joined Greenbaum in dancing in the aisles while she played, proving that her mission to return the historical presence of the flute as a klezmer instrument has largely has been accomplished.
