Profiles in "Informatics" Expertise Area

  • In addition to Southwest U.S. fieldwork, Kintigh's research focuses on digital repositories, synthesis, and the use of quantitative methods in archaeology.
  • Barton is a complex systems scientist who combines anthropology, archaeology, earth science, and information technologies to study long-term dynamics and interactions of people and landscapes in the Anthropocene.
  • Johnston’s research focuses on policy informatics, the study of how computational and communication technology is leveraged to specifically understand and address complex public policy and administration problems.
  • Allen Lee is a research software engineer who builds teams and cyberinfrastructure that support collective action research, complex adaptive systems modeling, and open, frictionless computationally enabled science.
  • Middel’s research interests lie in the interdisciplinary field of urban climate with focus on climate-sensitive urban form, design, landscapes, and infrastructure in the face of extreme heat and climatic uncertainty.
  • NAI Fellow; Professor of Biomedical Informatics and Data Science, Computer Science and Engineering, Robotics and Autonomous Systems, and Biomedical Engineering; 100+ publications; 40 patents; received several awards.
  • Duran studies information processing as revealed in the dynamics of movement and language across individuals and groups. His research areas include social perspective-taking, interpersonal processes and deception.
  • Gerkin investigates how smell perception, learning and behavior are represented in the brain. He also pursues neuroinformatics, development of tools and standards to facilitate analysis of neuroscience models and data.
