Research with Students
I am particularly passionate about developing research skills among undergraduate students, integrating them into my own research projects as well as mentoring students through their own original products. To date, I have been the undergraduate thesis advisor for over a dozen undergraduate theses, and mentor on over thirty internally or externally funded undergraduate projects. I have co-authored with over 50 students and former students, resulting in over a dozen peer-reviewed publications and 100 policy or news publications. Below are all the collaborations:
