Diana Mitsova is Associate Professor in the School of Urban and Regional Planning and Director of the Visual Planning Technology Lab at Florida Atlantic University. Her research focuses on the use of geographic information systems in disaster planning, critical infrastructure protection, coastal resilience, and climate adaptation of urban systems. Her research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, USGS, the National Park Service, The Nature Conservancy, and the Florida Sea Grant. She holds a Master's of Public Affairs from the School of Public and Environmental Affairs at Indiana University-urdue University, Indianapolis, and a Ph.D. in Regional Development Planning from the University of Cincinnati. She is also a recipient of a NATO Democratic Institutions Research Fellowship. Ann-Margaret Esnard is a Distinguished University Professor in the Department of Public Management and Policy at Georgia State University. Her expertise encompasses urban planning, disaster planning, and hazard and vulnerability assessment. Esnard has been involved in a number of research initiatives, including NSF-funded projects on the topics of population displacement from catastrophic disasters, school recovery after disasters, long-term recovery, and community resilience. She holds degrees in Agricultural Engineering (B.Sc., University of the West Indies-Trinidad), Agronomy and Soils (M.S., University of Puerto Rico-Mayaguez), and Regional Planning (Ph.D., UMASS-Amherst). She also completed a two-year post-doc at UNC-Chapel Hill.
