Profs. Barrett and Marsella receive NSF grant

Congratulations to Professors Lisa Feldman Barrett and Stacy Marsella, who, along with several other Northeastern faculty members, recently received a $2,498,810 grant from the National Science Foundation.

The three-year grant, for the “Identification and Control of Uncertain, Highly Interdependent Processes Involving Humans with Applications to Resilient Emergency Health Response,” will fund research into new ways for “communities to withstand and bounce back quickly from hazards,” according to the project’s abstract.

The other Northeastern faculty members involved in the grant include College of Engineering professors Mario Sznaier, Octavia Camps, Ali Abur, Edmund Yeh, Jacqueline Griffin, and Jerome Hajjar, and Kostas director Peter Boynton.
