I am honored to have been selected as a Postdoctoral Researcher for Academic Year 2021-22 at the U.S. Air Force Academy's Institute for Future Conflict (IFC). The IFC focuses on research and education that examines the changing character and technologies of armed conflict while providing future officers with the skills to be agile and adaptive throughout their careers. In this capacity I will be researching topics as they relate to the human domain and how that impacts future conflict, as well as supporting cadet education through the departments of Behavioral Science and Military & Strategic Studies. |
