Dr. Lisa Sundahl Platt is a researcher with the Florida Institute for Built Environment Resilience (FIBER), focusing on Public Health Resilience, and an Assistant Professor of Interior Design within the University of Florida's College of Design Construction and Planning. Her graduate training includes a Master of Science in Psychology and a Ph.D. in Systems Science, focusing on Health Systems Engineering. Before entering academia, she worked for over 25 years as a licensed professional in interior design, construction administration, sustainability planning, and operational improvement for health system environments within North and South America and abroad. Dr. Platt's research investigates how interdisciplinary research can elicit practical innovation to improve human and system resilience. This work's primary purpose is to explore the potential that socioecological modeling and collaborative computation scenario planning have for informing reliable risk moderation of "outside design basis" system hazards through adaptive built environment interventions.

Jordan Luther is a second year Master of Architecture student at Carnegie Mellon University. She received her Bachelor of Science in Architecture with minors in Art History and Building Construction Technology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst during the Spring of 2021. Her interdisciplinary research project focuses on biophilic design patterns and their impact on human perception and health in hospital patient rooms. The CRIT program has been tremendously beneficial in her experience and enabled her to become deeply engaged in the realm of evidence based design research. Luther had the opportunity to further her research by submitting her protocol to the Institutional Review Board and meeting with medical professionals to refine her study. She additionally had the pleasure of collaborating with designers and academic professionals to develop a better understanding of the evidence based design research process and its application to biophilic design. Luther’s experience in the CRIT Scholar program will be critical as she crafts her masters thesis investigating alternative design solutions to create safe, eco-ethical healing spaces for trauma patients, to alleviate ICU delirium.

Andrew L. Dannenberg, is an Affiliate Professor in the Department of Environmental & Occupational Health Sciences and in the Department of Urban Design and Planning at the University of Washington, where he teaches courses on health and built environment and on health impact assessment. Before coming to Seattle, he served as Team Leader of the Healthy Community Design Initiative in the National Center for Environmental Health at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). For the past 20 years, his research and teaching have focused on examining the health aspects of community design, including land use, transportation, urban planning, equity, climate change and other issues related to the built environment. He has a particular interest in the use of a health impact assessment as a tool to inform community planners about the health consequences of their decisions. Previously, he served as director of CDC's Division of Applied Public Health Training, as Preventive Medicine Residency director and injury prevention epidemiologist on the faculty at the Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health, and as a cardiovascular epidemiologist at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda. Dr. Dannenberg is board-certified in preventive medicine (1986-present). He completed a residency in family practice at the Medical University of South Carolina and was board-certified in family practice (1982-1989).
