Steven Biegalski, University of Texas-Austin Dr. Steven Biegalski is Director of the Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory at The University of Texas at Austin. He specializes in the fields of nuclear instrumentation, neutron radiography, analysis of environmental media with nuclear methods, and modeling of environmental pathways. Prior to working for the University of Texas, Dr. Biegalski has utilized his expertise to support the development of technology in support of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). This includes the development and installation of environmental aerosol and xenon monitoring stations, the development of software to analyze data from the radionuclide monitoring systems, and investigation of the trends, sources, and origin of anthropogenic radionuclides in the environment. In the past, Dr. Biegalski has used this expertise for investigations of air pollution sources in the Arctic, assessing the toxic metal input into the Great Lakes, and working on global change modeling.
