Rate My Professor Roby Greenwald

Greenwald holds a Ph.D. (2005) and M.S. (2001) from the Georgia Institute of Technology, and a B.S. (1994) in civil engineering from Clemson University. His career includes research faculty positions in the Department of Environmental Health at Emory University (2009-2014), where he contributed to studies on on-roadway exposure to particulate matter, and a postdoctoral fellowship in Emory's Department of Pediatrics (2005-2008), investigating air pollution exposure in pediatric asthma patients. During his doctoral studies at Georgia Tech (1999-2005), he developed an instrument for real-time measurement of water-insoluble aerosols and modeled atmospheric particulate matter's impact on crop production. Prior to graduate school, Greenwald served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Benin, West Africa (1995-1998), teaching beekeeping. Key publications include 'A novel method for quantifying the inhaled dose of air pollutants based on heart rate, breathing rate and forced vital capacity' (PLOS ONE, 2016), 'On-roadway in-cabin exposure to particulate matter: measurement results using both continuous and time-integrated sampling approaches' (Aerosol Science & Technology, 2014), 'Associations between source-indicative pollution metrics and increases in pulmonary inflammation and reduced lung function in a panel of asthmatic children' (Air Quality, Atmosphere & Health, 2013), 'Breath formate is a marker of S-nitrosothiol depletion in severe asthma' (PLoS ONE, 2010), and 'Ionic determinants of exhaled breath condensate pH before and after exercise in adolescent athletes' (Pediatric Pulmonology, 2009).
