Carey Professor Wins Award for Cross-Divisional Research
Tinglong Dai, an assistant professor at the Carey Business school at Johns Hopkins University, was chosen by JHU as one of the scholars who will receive university funding in JHU’s new program to support cross-divisional research. Hopkins officials have selected twenty-three teams of scholars for the Discovery Award initiative, which will contribute $15 million to faculty-led, cross-disciplinary research over the next three years. Dai has partnered with Chao-Wei Hwang of the JHU School of Medicine on the project “Clinical Decision Ambiguity and Conflicts of Interests on Decision-Making in the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory.”
Faculty members representing a variety of schools and departments at Hopkins selected the 23 teams from 217 proposals representing all 10 academic divisions, as well as Jhpiego, CTY, and the Sheridan Libraries.
“We believe high-quality, high-impact ideas arise when people are encouraged to bring their diverse experiences and viewpoints to the table,” JHU Provost Robert C. Lieberman said. “This award program attracted many powerful examples of that, and we are excited to give these innovative scholars the support they need to move forward.”
Tinglong Dai, joined the faculty of the Carey Business School at Johns Hopkins University in 2013, after finishing his Ph.D. in Industrial Administration at Carnegie Mellon University. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the research track at Carey with expertise in Marketing-Operations Interfaces, Healthcare Operations Management, and Operations Research/Computer Science Interfaces.
