A State of Unrest: Tracing Metabolic Instability Through Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Carbon Isotopes. This dissertation out of the Anthropology Department uses stable isotopes to investigate three distinct cases of altered or extreme metabolism: 1) Antler growth in Mesopotamian fallow deer (Dama mesopotamica), 2) Chronic immune responses in the bone, teeth, and visceral tissue of wood smoke–exposed rats, and 3) Malignant tissue growth in an otherwise healthy animal.

Assessing and Mitigating Structural Inequalities in Natural Hazard-Induced Power Outages Field of Study: Civil Engineering Area of Concentration: Transportation and Urban Engineering This dissertation advances hazard risk reduction by addressing the unequal impacts of severe weather-induced power outages on communities and infrastructure. It employs innovative analytical frameworks and agent-based modeling to examine spatial disparities, socioeconomic inequalities, and the mitigating role of electric vehicles in residential power disruptions. The findings offer actionable insights for developing resilient, equitable, and sustainable energy and transportation systems.
