Professional Title
Senior Research Program Manager, Environmental Engineer
Dr. Chun is an environmental engineer who is interested in studying the impacts of human activities on natural water system. Chun and her research team aim to understand chemical and microbial contaminants in natural (e.g. lakes, streams, and estuary) and built (e.g. sewer system, treatment facility and stormwater systems) environment and develop improved treatment technologies and mitigation strategies.
