Queens College faculty have long been resources for media and have acted as consultants worldwide, lending their expertise to efforts that address real-world problems. Now, a new online video series, “Big Ideas at Queens College,” will spotlight faculty research through in-depth interviews. The series, conceived by Queens College President Frank H. Wu, will introduce viewers to faculty members who are conducting a wide range of research on such impactful topics as addressing racial disproportionality in special education; monitoring COVID-19 in New York City’s wastewater; exploring the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on maternal health; studying historic climate trends to predict future hazards; and more.
