Nancy,Fahrenwald,Professor and Dean,"As a board certified advanced public health nurse, Dr. Fahrenwald has worked in collaboration with local, state, regional and national organizations and groups to translate research evidence into sustainable programs that support tobacco cessation and prevention, improve access to primary health care, and impact chronic disease prevention and control. She has led or provided consultation to 30 funded research or training projects. Her extensive experience with multiple federal agencies focuses on rural health care access and the needs of underserved populations, especially organ and tissue donation education for American Indians.",Dean||Faculty Fellow,Center for Health Systems and Design||School of Nursing,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n0cb1b858

Anna,Wolfe,Associate Professor,"Dr. Wolfe's research is centrally concerned with understanding how we can disagree with each other without being violently disagreeable. In pursuit of this goal, she has investigated how individuals use language to form collective identities with and against others, how leaders use narratives to mobilize those collectivities for action, and how processes of dialogue and deliberation can build bridges between oppositional stakeholders to facilitate the achievement of deeper shared understandings and more democratic public decisions. Her work has been published in journals such as Journal of Communication, Management Communication Quarterly, and Journal of Applied Communication Research. Her co-authored book, Sex and Stigma: Stories of Everyday Life in Nevada's Legal Brothels received the 2019 Book of the Year Award from the Critical Cultural Studies Division of the National Communication Association; Outstanding Book Award from the Organization for the Study of Communication, Language, and Gender; and Honorable Mention for the Sarah A. Whaley Book Prize from the National Women's Studies Association. She is also a member of the planning team for the Aspen Conference, a community of engaged organizational communication scholars focused on developing practical theory and collaborative research that bridge academic-practitioner interests. Consistent with the commitments of engaged organizational communication research, much of Dr. Wolfe's current work is conducted in collaboration with community partners, especially local governments, to use communication theory in the service of addressing everyday problems of living in a pluralistic society.",Associate Professor,,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n4b98e766
Brian,Larson,Associate Professor,"I study rhetoric and argumentation, especially in legal and professional communication. I focus on rhetorical and argumentation theory in context and practice, using text-analytic, computational, and cognitive methods.

Wald is an associate editor of the Science and Environmental Communication section within Frontiers in Communication, a top open-access journal in her subfield. Wald was previously the co-organizer of the Science Communication Project and the socio-economic lead for the C-CHANGE Project at Iowa State University. She received the Cassling Innovation Award from Iowa State University in 2019 and was a nominee for the 2021 Andrew Carnegie Fellowship. Wald received the CAREER award from the National Science Foundation in 2022.",Associate Professor,"Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communications",https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n6d3d32b2
Xinyue,Ye,Professor,"Dr. Xinyue Ye is Harold Adams Endowed Professor on Interdisciplinary Built Environment Science Research and Stellar Faculty Provost Target Hire for Urban Computing at Texas A&M University. With the career experience in urban planning, economic geography, geographic information system, and computational science, his research focuses on geospatial artificial intelligence, big data, smart cities, and urban computing. Dr. Ye models the space-time perspective of socioeconomic inequality and human dynamics for applications in various domains, such as economic development, disaster response, transportation and land use, public health and urban crime.
Prof. Ye is Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Computational Urban Science (indexed in EI and Web of Science), published by Springer. He also serves as the co-editor of Journal of Planning Education and Research. He is Vice President of Spatial Decision Support Consortium. He directs the focus of smart cities and transportation in the PhD program of Urban and Regional Science at Texas A&M University. He established Urban Data Science Lab as a platform to fly the imaginations of urban solution. He leads Design and Analytics Lab for Urban Artificial Intelligence (AI), funded through the Texas A&M Institute of Data Science. This lab develops digital twins and virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR) for multi-scaled simulations and scenarios for dynamically analyzing real-time built environments and testing scenarios for sustainable growth and climate action. This involves 55 faculty members across nine colleges at TAMU, including the Galveston campus, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, AgriLife Research, and Texas A&M Transportation Institute. In addition, he leads the development of urban data science course series, among the seven selected across campus. As the interim director of Center for Housing & Urban Development, Dr. Ye promotes the vision of ""urban informatics+"" to integrate human-centered urban and regional science research across disciplines. As the Director of the Center for Geospatial Sciences, Applications and Technology (GeoSAT) established by the Texas A&M Board of Regents, Dr. Ye aims to facilitate the convergence of computing and geospatial science.",Professor||Faculty Affiliate||Professor||Faculty Affiliate||Professor||Faculty Affiliate||Faculty Affiliate||Director||Professor||Faculty Fellow (Strategic Initiatives and Partnerships),"Division of Research||Center for Geospatial Science, Applications & Technology||Institute for Science, Technology, and Public Policy||Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning||Energy Institute||Multidisciplinary Engineering||Hazard Reduction and Recovery Center||Geography||Computer Science and Engineering||Texas A&M Institute of Data Science",https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n96eca29a
