Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Sarah Nurre Pinkley's research focuses on the application of operations research and optimization techniques to complex logistical and healthcare-related problems. Her work includes developing stochastic scheduling and allocation models for battery swap stations and investigating Markov decision processes for managing medical drone deliveries. Pinkley has explored the design of drone delivery networks for vaccine supply chains, including a case study in Niger. She also employs hybrid agent-based simulation and optimization approaches for expanding statewide truck parking capacity.

Her research has also addressed public health issues, with publications analyzing COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in the U.S. at both national and county levels. Pinkley's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 6, with 10 publications and 175 total citations. She has collaborated with several faculty members at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Sandra D. Ekşioğlu, Maximilian Kolter, Annabelle R. LaCrue, and Sarah Hernandez.
