Research Scientist in Atmospheric Sciences, University at Albany, State University of New York
Arshad Arjunan Nair is a Research Scientist at the Atmospheric Sciences Research Center (ASRC) of the University at Albany. Inherently an interdisciplinarian, Dr. Nair identifies concepts across disciplines and integrates them to address pressing research questions with societal implications. He received his Dual-Degree BS-MS in Physics from the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Pune, India and his PhD in the Atmospheric Sciences from the University at Albany, for which he won the 2021/22 SUNY Chancellor Distinguished PhD Graduate Dissertation Award (First Place).
Dr. Nair’s research intersects multiple disciplines, broadly aimed at contributing to our understanding of various impacts of atmospheric trace gases (particularly ammonia) and aerosols on climate and public health using synergistic approaches that have cross-disciplinary implications. His development of explainable machine learning models for the quantification of aerosol properties have contributed to mitigating the largest climate model uncertainties due to aerosol–cloud interactions. This work has further implications for the development and application of explainable (xAI), interpretable, and trustworthy artificial intelligence. Dr. Nair’s postdoctoral work was aimed at understanding unforeseen impacts of air-quality and health associations under a changing paradigm of atmospheric chemistry, particularly with emergent pollutants and their disparate impacts on underserved populations. His research is widely published, and he actively engages in interdisciplinary efforts to address pressing environmental challenges, aiming to inform public policy and bolster our community’s climate and health resilience.

A man whose music is described as “infectious, loud, and fun,” (Gramophone Magazine) and “fascinatingly strange,” (BBC Music Magazine) award-winning composer Arthur Gottschalk is Professor of Music Composition at Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music, where he founded and directed the school’s electronic music laboratories until 2002 and chaired the composition and theory department for 15 years. He was given the Meritorious Service Award by the Association of Rice Alumni in 2016, and in 2023 he was given the Presidential Award for Mentoring.
Gottschalk’s early work as a studio musician led to his co-founding of Modern Music Ventures, Inc., a company which held a recording studio complex, a record production division, four publishing firms, and an artist management division, and for whom he produced records for the PolyGram and Capitol labels, among others. Still conducting occasional work as an expert witness and forensic musicologist in music business trials, Gottschalk serves as a judge for many prominent competitions, including the Marvin Hamlisch International Music Award, the Cintas Foundations Awards, the McKnight Fellowships, the Grawemeyer Award, and the Piazzola International Music Competition, among others.
Gottschalk is a recipient of the Charles Ives Prize of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, annual ASCAP Awards since 1980, and has been a Composer-in-Residence at the famed Columbia/Princeton Electronic Music Center, the Piccolo Spoleto Festival, and a Visiting Artist at the American Academy in Rome.

Arun Vishwanath
Dr. Vishwanath studies the “people problem” of cyber security.
His research focuses on improving individual, organizational, and national resilience to cyber attacks by focusing on the weakest links in cyber security—all of us Internet users.
His particular interest is in understanding why organizational insiders willingly exfiltrate sensitive organizational data; why people become unintentional insiders by falling prey to social engineering attacks that come-in through email and social media; and on ways we can harness this understanding to secure cyber space. He also examines how various groups–-criminal syndicates, terrorist networks, hacktivists–-utilize cyber space to commit crime, spread mis-information, recruit operatives, and radicalize others.
Dr. Vishwanath’s research on improving cyber resilience against online social engineering has been funded by the National Science Foundation. He has written and published over two-dozen articles on technology users and cyber security issues and my research has been presented to principals at national security and law enforcement agencies around the world. His research has also been featured on CNN, USA Today, Bloomberg Business Week, Consumer Reports and hundreds of other national and international news outlets.

Åsa Gustafsson
Professor of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of California, San Diego
Dr. Gustafsson is interested in understanding the molecular pathways that regulate the life and death of cardiac myocytes. The occurrence of cardiovascular disease increases with advancing age and intrinsic alterations in aging cardiac myocytes are a major contributor to the underlying pathogenesis. In particular, a decline in mitochondrial function is considered to play a key role in the increased susceptibility to disease. In the heart, the primary function of mitochondria is to meet the high energy demand of the beating myocytes by providing ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondrial dysfunction and activation of cell death pathways are common occurrences in cardiovascular disease and contributes to the development of heart failure. Dr. Gustafsson uses genetic, cell and molecular biology approaches, mouse models, and cutting-edge 2D/3D imaging techniques to study the signaling pathways involved in regulating mitochondrial structure, function, and turnover in cells and heart. Specifically, Dr. Gustafsson's research is examining how the E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin regulates removal of dysfunctional mitochondria in cells; and b) determining the molecular mechanisms by which BCL-2 family proteins regulate mitochondrial function, morphology and turnover in cells.
