Tracey Holloway serves as the Jeff Rudd and Jeanne Bissell Professor of Energy Analysis and Policy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, jointly appointed in the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies and the Department of Atmospheric and Ocean Sciences. She leads the Holloway Group at the Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment (SAGE), focusing on the intersection of air quality, energy, climate, and public health. Dr. Holloway directs NASA's Health and Air Quality Applied Sciences Team (HAQAST) and chairs the Energy Analysis and Policy graduate certificate program. Her academic foundation includes a Sc.B. with honors in Applied Mathematics from Brown University (1995), a Ph.D. in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences with a graduate certificate in Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy from Princeton University (2001), and a post-doctoral fellowship at Columbia University's Earth Institute with the Mailman School of Public Health (2001-2003). Dr. Holloway's research integrates satellite remote sensing with atmospheric modeling to address critical air quality and public health challenges. Her work emphasizes the connections between energy systems, climate change, and pollution impacts, particularly through the application of NASA satellite data for real-world decision support. She develops methods to translate satellite observations into actionable insights for air quality management and health protection, with growing focus on environmental justice implications of emission reduction strategies. Recent publications reveal a strong trajectory toward multi-pollutant analysis, climate-air quality interactions, and quantification of health co-benefits from clean energy transitions. Her research spans urban to national scales, increasingly incorporating geostationary satellite capabilities like TEMPO for high-resolution monitoring, while maintaining emphasis on practical applications for policymakers and public health officials. Major recognitions include: Member of the National Academy of Medicine Ascent Award from the American Geophysical Union Atmospheric Sciences Section Multiple awards for science outreach, diversity, and mentoring As an educator and mentor, Dr. Holloway co-founded the Earth Science Women's Network (ESWN), providing critical support for early-career women in geosciences through structured mentoring programs. Her leadership in NASA HAQAST exemplifies her commitment to connecting scientific research with stakeholder needs, while her role chairing the Energy Analysis and Policy certificate program shapes the next generation of energy policy experts through interdisciplinary training. The Holloway Group operates as a dynamic research hub within SAGE, collaborating with federal agencies, international organizations, and community stakeholders to ensure research relevance. Current initiatives include developing satellite-based air quality indicators for public health applications, analyzing energy transition impacts on pollution disparities, and creating decision-support tools for sustainable urban planning.
