Alon Bassok abassok	Transportation in relation to equity, accessibility; land use and the environment
Andrew Bjorn abjorn	Urban environmental economics, housing markets, climate change, food policy
Sahera Bleibleh bleibleh	Community participation and interaction with the surrounding built environment, sustainable communities, public spaces and the evolution of urban morphology, streets as open space, and the representation of identity and meaning of place. Also, interested in urban development and constraints, planning policies, and socio-cultural context in areas of conflict and in Palestine.
Emad Dawwas dawwas	Infrastructure and transportation planning
Hossein Estiri hestiri	"Urban Form" is my primary interest area, focusing the "Main Structure" of city and its correlation to human and ecological behaviors. Moreover, I am working on a concept called "Marketing for Development", in the area of Real Estate Planning. Growth management and Sprawl are also areas that I am interested in doing research. Application of fitting logical structures; like GIS, Spatial models, and Simulation systems, have been constantly a significant part of my research, and professional task.

	CV
Phil Hurvitz phurvitz	Applications of GIS for the investigation of the relationship between urban structure and function and health-related behaviors. A substantial body of knowledge indicates there is a relationship between location and health; exactly how are the properties of urban environments related to such health factors as obesity, inactivity, and fast food consumption?
Yan Jiang yanjiang	Land cover change detection, the interaction between land use and land cover
