Ross Director of the Institute for a Sustainable Future, Purdue’s transdisciplinary institute working on both fundamental and applied research in areas aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Huber’s scholarship has been internationally recognized for its far-reaching global conclusions on Earth’s habitability, resilience, and sustainability on long time horizons. His research areas include the physical processes generating tropical “thermostats,” the polar amplification of warming, and the environmental, economic, ecological and evolutionary implications of these processes. Over the past decade, Huber’ has shifted focus to emphasize more applied and solutions-oriented research to help society build a better future. Planning for future needs requires seeing energy, environment, economics, climate, health, politics and society as linked systems and considering risk, resiliency, and security in all of these areas concurrently.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003eMarthie Grobler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003ePrincipal Research Scientist, CSIRO\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-AU\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;\"\u003eDr Marthie Grobler is a Principal Research Scientist at CSIRO’s Data61, where she leads CSIRO’s strategic portfolio on Critical Infrastructure Protection and Resilience. Her research focuses on strengthening the security and resilience of essential systems and services by addressing cybersecurity governance, risk mitigation, and the complex interdependencies across critical infrastructure sectors. With a strong emphasis on human factors and digital trust, Grobler’s work enhances the usability and adoption of security solutions in real-world environments. She is actively involved in executive education and policy development, contributing to national efforts to build infrastructure resilience and public confidence in digital systems. Her work informs cyber policy and capability-building initiatives, helping ensure that Australia’s critical infrastructure remains secure, adaptive, and interconnected in the face of evolving threats.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003eRossitza Homan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003eManager, Resilience and Regulatory Effects Department, Sandia National Laboratories\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003eDr. Rossitza Homan is a distinguished leader at Sandia National Laboratories, where she oversees research, capability development, and the deployment of critical solutions for national security missions.
