As Citizens of Change, our researchers are dedicated to researching some of today’s most critical issues, from viruses and disease to air quality, preserving our natural world, and ensuring social justice for all. Just as we are diverse in our makeup, we are equally diverse in our research. Our five areas of research strength: Space Power and AI, Human Health, Sustaining the World, Cultural and Natural Heritage, and Social Justice and Inclusion allow our researchers to significantly improve lives and societies through the power and impact of their research. We aim to shape policy and influence decision-making to improve lives and livelihoods in the region, nationally and globally.
