Dr. Albert Cerrone is a senior research fellow at the Oden Institute and a research assistant professor in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering & Earth Sciences at the University of Notre Dame. His research interests lie at the intersection of computational modelling and large-scale physical phenomena like storm surge and disease transmission. He currently operates NOAA's development instance of STOFS-2D-Global at the University of Notre Dame, and he works to integrate FloDisMod's environmental niche models within it. His current focus is modeling vibriosis off the Southwest Florida coast. His past research projects include forecasting damage of components in the high-pressure turbine (HPT) of aircraft engines, interrogating the durability of additively manufactured components, studying the effect of antibiotics on insonated biofilms, and modeling the failure of the SARS-CoV-2 virion. He received his BSCE from the University of Notre Dame in 2009 and PhD from Cornell University in 2014.
