Data-Driven EnviroLab Monthly Research Seminar

The Data-Driven EnviroLab, led by Angel Hsu, assistant professor of Public Policy and faculty member in the Environment, Ecology and Energy Program, is hosting a monthly research seminar series this semester where researchers and colleagues of the lab will give talks and moderate discussions about research, often surrounding climate change.

This month’s featured speaker is Cassandra R. Davis, an Assistant Professor of Public Policy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Dr. Davis has researched environmental disruptions, specifically the impact of natural hazards on low-income schooling communities of color. Dr. Davis’ goal is to support community leaders, educators, and policymakers to improve responses, preparedness, and recovery in areas with the highest need. Her most recent project focused on gathering insight from community members and government officials on the best strategies to distribute equitable support to marginalized communities and build trust between groups.

The seminar will take place on Thursday, Oct. 13th at 2pm, in Toy Lounge in Dey Hall.
There will be snacks and interesting conversation – we hope to see you there!
