Profile

Dorota A. Grejner-Brzezinska

ERVA Principal Investigator
University Distinguished Professor
Lowber B. Strange Endowed Chair in Engineering
Vice President for Knowledge Enterprise
The Ohio State University

“The solutions to the most complex research, technological and societal challenges cannot be accomplished entirely within one academic discipline; they require contributions from neighboring disciplines as well. ERVA is a new, independent, diverse and collaborative platform that will enable just that.”
