Thomas Hartung, MD, PhD, steers the revolution in toxicology to move away from 50+ year-old animal tests to organoid cultures and the use of artificial intelligence.

Gurumurthy Ramachandran, PhD, MS, conducts research focused on developing effective and accurate methods to assess health-related human exposure in occupational and non-occupational settings.

Thomas Inglesby, MD, is internationally recognized in the fields of public health preparedness, pandemic and emerging infectious disease, and prevention of and response to biological threats.

Paul ­ is a Bloomberg Distinguished Professor with joint appointments in the Department of Environmental Health and Engineering and the Carey Business School. He is known for his research on behavioral economics and the design and estimation of impacts of environmental programs.

An expert in environmental systems analysis, Hugh's innovative models and analysis are integral to critical, policy-shaping research studies ranging from climate issues to public health.

Steve is an expert in financial statecraft, including water resource economics.

Alan employs chemistry foundations to biogeochemical processes to address issues of anthropogenic chemicals in the environment and engineered systems.

Ben, the Theodore M. and Kay W. Schad Professor of Environmental Management, uses systems analysis and economics to improve electric utility planning, operations, and policy, as well as management of environmental and water resources systems.

Harihar uses mathematical models to shed light on complex environmental and earth systems and to predict future trends within those systems.

Paul Locke, DrPH '98, MPH, JD, is a scientist and lawyer who researches, designs, and implements evidence-based policies to improve public health and protect the environment.
