HEATWAVES & WELLBEING
University of Napoli

This research investigates how prolonged heatwaves affect population health. By integrating weather data with public health infrastructure, the study identifies critical thresholds that trigger surges in hospital admissions, enabling targeted prevention strategies. 

AI-RESPIRE
Imperial College London

AI-Respire leverages artificial intelligence to model how individuals and urban environments respond to air pollution, integrating data from cellular biology, respiratory health, and urban sensors. The project ultimately aims to empower individuals, policymakers, and city planners with actionable insights and adaptive strategies to create healthier living spaces.

DIVERSE-CDT
City, University of London, and the University of Warwick

The DIVERSE-CDT (Centre for Doctoral Training) is an initiative focused on developing innovative approaches to data visualization that promote exploration, reflection, and scientific explanation. The CDT aims to train the next generation of data scientists, focusing on diversity in both the student body and the approaches to data visualization.
