Chinmoy Bhattacharjee
College of Arts and SciencesChinmoy Bhattacharjee, Ph.D., assistant professor of physics in the College of Arts and Sciences, published a paper, "Formation of multiscale structures in a self-gravitating dusty plasma with matter current," in the Physical Review E journal, his fourth single-author paper in this journal, on October 9, 2025. The article explores the structure of magnetic and flow fields in dusty plasmas. It illuminates the impact of Einstein's theory of general relativity in dusty plasmas, which is critical for star formation in the universe.

O’Hara, Ph.D., associate professor of interdisciplinary studies, spoke about “Ethical Considerations of GenAI” on September 30, 2025, with undergraduate students in the course, Digital and AI Literacy, which is part of the Foundation Core at Flame University in Pune, India. O’Hara discussed topics such as transparency, academic integrity, bias, and societal impacts associated with the use of generative artificial intelligence.
Lynn Rogoff
College of Arts and SciencesLynn Rogoff, M.F.A., adjunct associate professor of English, Department of Humanities, published an article, "From Pilots to Production: Bird Woman, Sacajawea Scaling AI Responsibly in Creative Industries," in AI Journal, on September 18, 2025. The research demonstrated how AI video can expand creative possibilities without replacing the human creative team’s insights that drive truly resonant work.
Jonathan Ezra Goldman
College of Arts and SciencesJonathan Ezra Goldman, Ph.D., professor of English, Department of Humanities, published an article, "Zohran Mamdani, and a 100-year-old history of anti-Zionism in New York City," in an online magazine, Mondoweiss: News and Opinion about Palestine, Israel, and the United States, on September 13, 2025.

Niharika Nath
CASNiharika Nath, Ph.D., professor of biological and chemical sciences, co-authored an academic article, "A Comprehensive Survey on Diagnostic Microscopic Imaging Modalities, Challenges, Taxonomy, and Future Directions for Cervical Abnormality Detection and Grading," in the September 2025 issue of IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence. This review surveys automatic computerized methods for diagnosing pre-cancerous cervical cell abnormalities based on microscopic imaging modalities and provides a novel taxonomy of the surveyed techniques and approaches used.
Sebastien Marion
LibraryEdward Guiliano, Ph.D., president emeritus and professor of English in the Department of Humanities, and Sebastien Marion, M.L.I.S., M.B.A., librarian III, virtual services, have published a scholarly article in Dickens Studies Annual, titled, "Dickens on Broadway: An Annotated Bibliography of Theatrical Adaptations of Dickens's Works."

Robert Alexander
College of Arts and SciencesRobert G. Alexander, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychology and counseling, has been awarded an NIH Support for Research Excellence (SuRE) R16 grant as principal investigator. The project, The Effects of Cue Precision on Medical Imaging Interpretation, was awarded on August 12, 2025, and it will investigate how radiologists interpret complex medical images when aided by artificial intelligence, using eye-tracking data to optimize how visual cues are delivered. In parallel, the grant supports the Human Factors And Neuroscience Lab’s student-centered training model as a pipeline for student success.
