ISIE SUS Webinar Series The Sustainable Urban Systems section invite you all to attend our 2019 webinar series, with our first webinar to be presented by Prof. Daniel Hoornweg of Univeristy of Ontario Institute of Technology's Faculty of Energy Systems and Nuclear Science. Please register usi...
I would describe myself as a systems thinker - I am intrigued by the different types of relationships that we have with people, nature and infrastructures, and the complex layerings of cause, effect and feedback that drive our systems. I completed an Ecology undergraduate in Stony Broo...
Dear all,
Some of you might already know about the work we are doing at Metabolism of Cities (an online and open source web platform).
For some years now, we have tried to centralise information (articles, research projects, data, etc.) around urban metabolism. That also le...

Kangkang (KK) Tong is a Post-doc at the Center for Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy, University of Minnesota. Her interest is about cities, infrastructure, and sustainability. Her research aims to investigate how and to what extent cities can contribute to sustainable deve...
My central research question is investigating how the design and provision of infrastructure interact with societal scale goals (particularly around the environment). The goal is to find quantitative methods and tools to better design, build and create policy around...
I have broad academic and research experience that I like to think brings some creative thinking on open ended problems of urban sustainability and I particularly like to bring ideas from other disciplines and see how/if they work somewhere else: 'urban metabolism' and 'industrial ecol...
I am trained in architecture and urbanism, with my doctoral work focused on mid-20th century construction history. Practicing architecture in Switzerland and Germany through the 1990s and early 2000s, I was involved in early work on embodied energy calculations, energy efficient buildi...
