Dr. Frank Loge is currently Professor at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Director of the Center for Water Energy Efficiency, and member of the Secure Research Commuting Environment in the University of California Davis (UC Davis). In addition, he is member of the Board of Directors of the Alliance for Water Efficiency in Chicago and former member of the Governor Newsom’s Water Resilience Initiative Portfolio, from the Governor’s Office in Sacramento, California.

His research involves green engineering and environmental sustainability with a focus on water, waste, energy, and built environment systems; risk analysis of engineered and natural systems focusing on water and health relationships; water and energy conservation, and resource use efficiency.

Dr. Loge is working on biomarkers of exposure to hazardous substances for the National Institute of Health and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences Superfund Research Center (US). In addition, he has worked on projects such as a multi-community intervention with UV light disinfection for estimating the risk of gastrointestinal illness from drinking groundwater for the US Environmental Protection Agency, and an environmentally benign manufacturing process utilizing renewable biopolymers to manufacture natural fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites for the National Science Foundation (US), among others.

Professor Loge has over 100 publications on subjects related to leak reduction and water management; water distribution system optimization; utility-specific water loss reduction standards, to name a few, on publications such as Environmental Research Letters; Journal of Water Resources Planning and Management; 2021 IEEE Visualization (conference paper), among others. 

Dr. Loge has been awarded the US Department of Energy Solar Decathlon Award (2015 & 2017); the Ray B. Krone Endowed Professorship of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, at University of California Davis (2013 - present); he has also won the People Prosperity and Planet (P3) Award five times from 2007 to 2012 in several categories and has also been recognized by the National Science Foundation with the CAREER Award (2001-2006).
