Marketing

Vijay Mahajan's areas of expertise include marketing strategy, product diffusion, research methodology and the Global South.

Ashley Matheny

Earth and Planetary Sciences

Ashley Matheny is an ecohydrologist whose research focuses on understanding and simulating the ways vegetation influences the storage and movement of water between the soil and the atmosphere. She uses a wide variety of field measurements and numerical modeling strategies to answer questions regarding the ways droughts, salinity, and other disturbances influence vegetation-climate feedbacks in terms of water, carbon, and energy exchange.

Leonard Moore

History

Leonard Moore researches Black power, the Civil Rights Movement, the history of the segregated South, and teaches courses on Black history and politics.

Guihua Yu

Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering

Guihua Yu's researches design and synthesis of functional nano-architectured materials, like organic and hybrid organic-inorganic nanomaterials, understanding of their chemical and physical properties, and development of large-scale assembly and integration methodologies to enable important applications in energy, environment and sustainability, e.g. fast-charging batteries, electrocatalysis, solar water purification, critical mineral recovery.
