  • Prof. Dr. Joacim Rocklöv, Universität Heidelberg, Heidelberg Institute of Global Health

In his talk (in English), Prof. Rocklöv will discuss how global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution are intertwined and how models and data science offer opportunities to understand how this impacts and potentially will impact the health of populations. He will discuss the use of different types of models for different tasks, and how technology offers new solutions for filling critical data gaps.
