About the event
Bio:
Dr. Jennifer Guelfo is an associate professor in Civil, Environmental, & Construction Engineering at Texas Tech University (TTU). She joined TTU in 2018 following a postdoctoral appointment in the Brown University School of Engineering. In addition to academia, she also has a combination of consulting and industry experience, and she uses this background to engage in activities that can inform policy and bridge gaps between research and practice. For the past 15 years, her research has focused on occurrence, fate, transport, and remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). This includes multi-institution, state- and federal-level projects focused on PFAS in biosolids, biosolids-amended soils, and PFAS in agriculture. Dr. Guelfo has received the TTU Ed and Linda Whitacre Faculty Fellowship and the Chancellor’s Council Distinguished Research Award. Dr. Guelfo holds a BA in Geology from the College of Charleston, a MS in Environmental Science & Engineering from the Colorado School of Mines…
