Jeff,Haberl,Professor,"His work emphasizes building energy modeling, statistical modeling, methods for diagnosing operational problems, operator feedback using comparisons of predicted and actual energy use, artificial intelligence, advanced energy usage graphics, prescreening calculations for improving commercial and residential energy audits, public-domain M&V algorithms, computerized solar shading procedures, accuracy tests for HVAC systems, BIM-to-thermal procedures, and procedures for calculating air pollution savings from energy efficiency and renewable energy projects (i.e., SOx, NOx, CO2, PM and Hg).
He is a Co-PI of the Laboratory's Texas Emissions Reduction Program (TERP), along with Mr. Bahman Yazdani, where he provides technical leadership for the code compliance calculator and emissions calculations from energy efficiency and renewable energy. He is a Co-PI for the USEPA's National Center of Excellence on Displaced Emissions Reductions (CEDER), with Dr. Charles Culp and Mr. Bahman Yazdani, which was established in the Spring of 2007 to help the EPA transfer the Texas emissions reductions calculation procedures to other states; a Co-PI for the Laboratory's Continuous Commissioning(R) program for improving energy efficiency in existing buildings; PI and/or Co-PI on numerous ASHRAE Research Projects (RP-827, RP-865, RP-1050, RP-1093, RP-1017, RP-1468); Co-PI on an NSF project for creating physically-based, BIM-to-thermal simulations; PI on the NAS TRB project for benchmarking airport terminal energy use; and the Co-PI of Texas A&M University's 2007 Solar Decathlon Effort, with Pliny Fisk as the PI.
He was the Principal Investigator for the Computer Support and Improved Energy Audit of the Texas LoanSTAR project from 1990 to 2002, a $98.6 million revolving loan for the state of Texas that was the largest first large-scale project in the United States to continuously measure and report energy savings in over 160 building energy conservation retrofits.",Professor||Faculty Fellow,Center for Health Systems and Design||Architecture,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/n97ce0ddc
Joshua,Hicks,Professor,"My research aims to understand how people answer the ""big"" questions in life and how people's answers to those questions influence their attitudes and behavior. Our lab formulates and tests a wide range of hypotheses related to many types of existential concerns focusing on the antecedents and consequences of the experience of meaning in life, authenticity, self-alienation, perceptions of free-will, and mortality awareness.",Professor||Faculty Fellow,Center for Health Systems and Design,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/na0f1fa85
Allison,Hopkins,Assistant Professor,"Dr. Hopkins is a medical and ecological anthropologist specializing in interdisciplinary research on the connections between globalization and/or social relationships and human health. Specifically, she focuses on understanding the knowledge people have about local resources, how that knowledge relates to their behavior, what factors are associated with variation in their knowledge and behavior, and ultimately how that relates to health. She researches these issues in varying contexts, with different populations, types of knowledge and factors at play. Additionally, the theoretical and methodological approaches she uses are varied and depend on the research question and the strengths of the research team. For example, Hopkins is collaborating with colleagues on a study focused on smoking relapse prevention. She is using social network theory and methods to capture the composition and changes in the social networks of recently quit smokers in the United States, how their networks relate to their ability to stay quit, and how information on smoking cessation spreads through their networks. Most recently Dr. Hopkins started a mixed-methods project guided theoretical by cognitive anthropology to examine the conditions under which different models of social change, including educational models, are effective at reducing poverty and increasing wellbeing and food sovereignty in the Yucatan.",Assistant Professor||Faculty Fellow,Center for Health Systems and Design||Anthropology,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/nd78cbf7f
