Environmental and Climate Research

Anne McNeil

Our research aims to address some of the world’s biggest challenges through chemical recycling of waste plastics, developing methods to capture microplastics, measuring microplastics in the environment, and designing redox-active molecules for energy storage applications. Accomplishments and Awards

Mark Burns

Many biological assays require detection and quantification of chemical species in aqueous solutions. Dr. Burns has worked to develop inexpensive and easy ways to fabricate sensors that can detect proteins, small molecules, and ions in biological fluids such as blood, urine, and saliva. The sensors use a combination of electrochemical reactions, steric hinderance, and optical ...

William Axinn

Dr. Axinn is a Professor of survey research, population studies, sociology, and public policy at the University of Michigan. Axinn is a social demographer studying community, intergenerational, and social psychological influences on marriage, childbearing, reproductive health, mental health, and the natural environment. He is the former director of Michigan’s Survey Research Center, which has an ...

Jiaqi Li

Dr. Jiaqi Li’s research interests include industrial decarbonization of materials, such as concrete and hydrogen, for civil and energy infrastructure through the use and generation of renewable energy and carbon capture, utilization, and storage. His research uses in-house experimental results to validate modelling work and uses machine learning tools such as regression, clustering, network analysis, ...

Benjamin Goldstein

Benjamin Goldstein is Assistant Professor of Environment and Sustainability and head of the Sustainable Urban-Rural Futures (SURF) lab. The SURF Lab (www.surf-lab.ca) studies and emphasizes urban sustainability at multiple scales. Through his work at the SURF Lab, Benjamin helps understand how urban processes and urban form drive the consumption of materials and energy in cities ...

Carol Menassa

My group’s research focuses on understanding and modeling the interconnections between human experience and the built environment. We design autonomous systems that support wellbeing, safety and productivity of office and construction workers, and provides them opportunities for lifelong learning and upskilling. In all research projects, we work hard to ensure that the results are inclusive ...

Angela Violi

The Violi Lab carries out cross-disciplinary research at the intersection of nanoscience and data science. By integrating machine learning techniques with molecular simulations, the team strives to unravel fundamental scientific principles while tackling practical problems in material science, healthcare, and environmental sustainability. Their methodological toolkit encompasses various cutting-edge approaches: active learning and Bayesian experimental design ...

Cyrus Omar

I lead the Future of Programming Lab (FP Lab), where we design modern user interfaces for modern programming languages. Much of how we program today is rooted in tools designed 40+ years ago, e.g. how we enter code (using simple text editing, which leads to profligate parse errors), how we validate code (using tests or ...

Johanna Mathieu

My research focuses on ways to reduce the environmental impact, cost, and inefficiency of electric power systems via new operational and control strategies. I am particularly interested in developing new methods to actively engage distributed flexible resources such as energy storage, electric loads, and distributed renewable resources in power system operation. This is especially important ...
