Research interests
I am interested in the impacts of climate variability and change on human health. In the past few years, I have been researching the changes in extreme weather events such as heatwaves and cold spells, and how these changes translate to negative health outcomes including illnesses and deaths. To answer research questions in this inter-disciplinary area, I utilise modelling methods in both climate science and epidemiology and collaborate with epidemiologists, public health experts and medical professionals.
The goal of my research is to provide new and useful information for policymakers to make decisions about climate adaptation and mitigation, so that fewer people will be adversely affected by climate change. To this end, I work with national organisations such as the Met Office and UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), as well as local authorities.
I am also a contributing author to the Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) Working Group I, on Chapter 3: Human Influence on the Climate System.
