Three assistant
professors in the College of Engineering and Information Technology were
awarded funding through the Summer Faculty Fellowship (SFF) this past
summer.
The SFF program supports non-tenured, tenure-track UMBC faculty pursuing research and scholarly projects in any UMBC department during the summer.
A brief overview of the project that was awarded SFF funding is below. For a complete list of all projects that received funding click here.
Andrew Gadsden, assistant professor of mechanical engineering, received funding from the SFF program to further explore and develop estimation strategies that other engineers and scientists can apply in the future to work from control systems technology to stock market analysis.
Qian Zhu, assistant professor of information systems, received SFF funding to integrate and represent pharmacogenomics information from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on cancer drugs, to facilitate cancer research and support drug discovery.
Ting Zhu, assistant professor of computer science and electrical engineering, received a Summer Faculty Fellowship to apply information on cellular phone users’ social interactions to determine accurate indoor localization without the support of external infrastructure, such as Wi-Fi or cellular networks.
