Research @ UVA Engineering

Henning Mortveit is an associate professor in the Biocomplexity Institute Initiative. He received his doctorate in mathematics from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in 2000. Before joining ESE he held positions at the Los Alamos National Laboratory and at Virginia Tech.

Jason Papin, Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering, develops computational models of cellular networks and performs experiments to characterize biological systems relevant to human disease. After his training in Bioengineering at University of California, San Diego, Jason Papin joined the faculty at University of Virginia in 2005.

Brian Park is a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Department of Systems and Information Engineering at the University of Virginia. His research focuses on improving the efficiency of surface transportation systems via connected automated vehicle controls, traffic operations and management strategies.  

Quinn's research focuses on optimization and simulation methods used to inform the design and management of water resources systems with the goals of protecting people from nature (floods and droughts), and nature from people (pollution and consumption). She is interested in how advanced sensing and forecasting techniques inform this optimization.

Dr. Daniel J. Rosenkrantz is a Distinguished Institute Professor with the Biocomplexity Institute and Initiative at the University of Virginia. He has made fundamental contributions to many areas of computer science including formal languages, theory of computation, etc and is listed in notable “Who’s Who” lists for his many scientific achievements

William T. Scherer is a super expert in systems engineering, stochastic control, and business analytics. Professor Scherer has served on the University of Virginia Systems Engineering Program faculty since 1986. He also consults with numerous organizations on the topics of systems thinking and business analytics applied to disparate organizations.

Dr. Shakeri's research includes algorithm development in machine learning and network science, computational statistics and data-driven identification and control of high-dimensional dynamical systems. Dr. Shakeri is an Assistant Professor at the School of Data Science and Assistant Professor by Courtesy in the Department of Biomedical Engineering.
