Biography
Dr. Miller is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado. She is also an active faculty member of the interdisciplinary Environmental Engineering Program at CU.
Her research interests lie in indoor air quality, health effects and exposure to particulate air pollution, and development and evaluation of indoor air quality control measures.
Dr. Miller’s current research projects include engineering controls for reducing exposures to infectious diseases, source apportionment of ambient PM2.5 and association with health effects, association of coarse particles with health effects in urban and rural areas, characterization of environmental conditions in immigrant housing, characterizing ultrafine particles that penetrate into mechanically ventilated buildings, bioaerosol control including filtration and ultraviolet germicidal irradiation.
Dr. Miller has received funding for her research program from the US EPA, HUD, CDC, NIOSH, NSF, NIH, and various private foundations and industry sponsors.
Dr. Miller received the Chancellor’s Postdoctoral Fellow from the University of Colorado in 1996. In 2000, she received an Environmental Achievement Award from the US EPA Region 8 for her work assessing indoor air quality in schools.
Dr. Miller received her B.S. in Applied Mathematics from Harvey Mudd College and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Civil Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley.
