Projects
Climate-related health costs and adaptation measures ❄️☀️🌳 [2025-]
As part of a research grant funded by Actions concertées of FRQ and MELCCFP.
- Modelling the health burden of summer and winter conditions in Quebec
- Projecting the associated health costs under various climate change scenarios
- Analyzing the cost and benefits of different adaptation measures
Heat-related health and economic effects using data science 🌇 [2021-]
As part of my Ph. D. at INRS and my research internships at INSPQ and BCCDC/UBC.
- Modelling the heat-related health impacts using machine and deep learning models
- Estimating the heat burden and associated health costs with projected climate change
- Analyzing vulnerability factors to extreme heat such as medication use and schizophrenia
