Faculty at the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford were actively involved in research and presentations across various fields during the fall semester. Dr. Behnaz Rezaie, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering technology, delivered a keynote speech at an international conference in India on enhancing sustainability in district cooling systems. Dr. Obinna Ezeihuoma, assistant professor of criminal justice, published chapters on non-custodial services in Nigeria and factors influencing mental health in aging populations. Additionally, he participated in a criminology conference in San Francisco. Dr. Hirushie Karunathilake, assistant professor of engineering, focused on the role of hydrogen in energy consumption and its potential applications in fuel cells and power generation. Chemistry and biology faculty and students presented their research at conferences, exploring topics such as pH behavior of large molecules and the safety of chemicals on aquatic crustaceans. Dr. Oluwabunmi Femi-Oloye and Dr. Femi F. Oloye conducted studies on the safety of a chemical used in crop protection, highlighting concerns about its environmental impacts. The research also involved evaluating non-edible seed oils for potential biofuel applications. Oloye is now collaborating with students to explore native plants for sustainable biofuel development and natural health products.
