Professor Stewart-Frey teaches courses in water resources, water security, spatial analysis, community-based research, and earth systems.
Her research studies the impact of climate variability and change on water resources using models, and spatial & statistical analysis. She also uses a community-based approach to connect science findings to issues of justice in the distribution of environmental benefits and burdens. Professor Stewart-Frey is interested in interdisciplinary research and has collaborated with scholars from the fields of engineering, geography, ecology, and economics. Her research seeks to explain (i) recent and future impacts of climate warming on water resources, stream flows and temperatures, (ii) the impact of climate change across Central America and determinants for food and water security in the region, (iii) the role of climate, agriculture, laws, and infrastructure on water justice in Northern California, and (iv) the unequal distribution of environmental benefits and burdens in Silicon Valley with a focus on green spaces and roadway emissions.

Prof Raymond Ooi is a quantum physicist, has 25 years of research experience, produced more than 120 publications in WoS (mainly Q1 journals) on a range of topics in quantum optics, nonlinear optics, plasmonics and laser interactions. He is a Fellow of the Academy of Sciences Malaysia (ASM). In 2013, he won the Malaysian Toray Science Foundation (MTSF) Science & Technology Award. Raymond Ooi obtained his Dr.rer.nat (PhD) from Universitaet Konstanz, Germany. He spent 3 years as a postdoc at Texas A&M University and was a regular Visiting Scientist at Princeton University and Max-Planck Institut fuer Quantenoptik. He conducted research at KAIST and taught at Korea University before joining Universiti Malaya, and initiated "Quantum and Laser Science" research lab equipped with femtosecond laser optics facility under the High Impact Research grant.
Raymond is the Principal Investigator for quantum communication research programme funded by MOHE, has 2 patents and has been invited/plenary speaker at more than 30 international conferences. In 2018 he initiated and chaired the first international conference on Quantum and Nonlinear Optics(QNO2018) that was attended by pioneers in the field and secured three international funds to run the conference. He served as a Judge for MIT Technology Review “Innovators Under 35 Asia Pacific”. Currently he is the Editorial Board member for the prestigious journals; the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A and the New Journal of Physics, and has written several articles in the media, connecting science to recent topics like green energy and climate change.
