My scholarly interests are primarily related to air pollution and its impacts on human health and the environment. Through my work, I seek to understand the multi-scale interactions of air pollutants with the natural and built environments and to elucidate the effects of these interactions on public health and on sustainability.

Teaching

I teach interdisciplinary courses on air pollution and the environment in the departments of Environmental and Occupational Health, Civil and Environmental Engineering, and Geography.

PHC 6303 / CGN 6933 Community Air Pollution
PHC 6930 Public Health Seminar (Environmental Research Interdisciplinary Colloquium)
PHC 6934 / CGN 6933 / GEO 6119 Sustainability Concepts and Methods: Mercury in Tampa Bay
PHC 7934 / CGN 6933 Environmental Modeling
PHC 7935 /Environmental Health Research Discussions
ATMO 685 Advanced Topics in Atmospheric Chemistry (at Texas A&M University)

Research

My group is involved in research projects in the following areas:

A major tool of our group's work is computing. The image shows our group supercomputer, Enviro, which is integrated in the high performance computing cluster administered by USF Research Computing. We have also starting doing laboratory work for measurement and analysis of pollutants. For information about our shared laboratory facilities , click here.

Prospective Students:
I am seeking qualified and motivated graduate students for study of air quality related research topics. I am specifically interested in students with undergraduate degrees in technical fields (i.e. engineering, computer science, chemistry, mathematics, statistics). Student may apply for a MPH, MS, or PhD degrees in Environmental Health, through the Department of Environmental & Occupational Health, or MS, ME or PhD in Environmental Engineering, through the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering. Prospective applicants should refer to the USF Graduate School admissions procedures as well as requirements specific to the department (EOH, CEE). Prospective applicants are encouraged to apply for those funding opportunities (College of Public Health Opportunities; College of Engineering Fellowship Opportunities; USF Fellowship; Other Fellowship listings) relevant to your degree plans.

Notable Service

Cofounder and lead instructor, Environmental Research Interdisciplinary Colloquium, USF. A three college seminar series for students, faculty, and community members. The series actively integrates research with education through attachment of undergraduate and graduate courses in three departments (EOH, CEE, and Geography) and an open access website with talk archives for community education.
Host and faculty organizer. Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors Distinguished Lecture, USF, March 2008. Visiting lecture and poster session with faculty and student participants from several department at USF and from the University of Florida and University of Central Florida.
Student chapter advisor, Air and Waste Management Association, USF. The USF students won first prize in the Florida Section student Environmental Challenge competition in November 2007 and recently competed in the national competition in June 2008.
