I am an ambitious and enthusiastic PhD candidate with a profound passion in environmental health epidemiology. I am currently investigating the effects of temperature on people’s health in São Paulo, Brazil, focusing on identifying vulnerable groups to inform targeted policies. This is part of my PhD in Public Health at Imperial College of London, UK, in collaboration with the University of São Paulo, Brazil. I am particularly interested in the application of novel methodologies and data sources to climate change research. Prior to that, I trained in Biomedical Sciences at the Autonomous University of Barcelona and hold a first-class MSc degree in Health Promotion by the University of Girona. As a visiting researcher at the Phi-Lab, I will be exploring different machine learning approaches and EO data to produce accurate predictions of daily temperature at a high spatial resolution for the municipality of São Paulo, Brazil.
