Research Group Leader of Digital Global Health. Her research integrates artificial intelligence, data science, and sensor-based technologies to assess/predict the health impacts of climate change on vulnerable populations. She is focusing on implementing biosensors for early warning systems in climate-sensitive diseases and graph databases for continuous, multi-granular data analysis.

Senior Professor at Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin, he is a specialist in heat-related injuries and general space physiology. He contributed to several space missions with the Space Shuttle, the MIR and on the International Space Station. Currently, he is the Chief Field-Editor of Frontiers Section Environmental, Aviation and Space Physiology.

A medical epidemiologist, with a background in human medicine, at KEMRI with 15 years of experience in HIV implementation science and a current focus on planetary health. He currently investigates the impact of, and adaptation to, climate-induced hazards—such as heat stress on well-being and productivity—among vulnerable populations.

Professor of Physiology, focusing on human adaptation to extreme environments, e.g., space, cold and extreme heat, with knowledgeable expertise in bio-signals analysis assessing metabolic, thermoregulatory, cardiovascular and behavioral response to environmental stressors, leading several projects in space medicine, climate change, heat stress and their impact on human health and performance.

Statistician in health data science, with a PhD from UKZN. His research applied machine learning to cancer diagnosis and survival prediction, integrating gene expression and DNA mutation data for improved accuracy. Currently he collaborates with Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and Heidelberg University on health data science projects.

Project Manager at Remote Sensing Solutions GmbH with a PhD in Biology related to remote sensing applications in Africa. Expertise in large-scale environmental monitoring and modelling applications, Big Data Analysis, remote sensing and GIS, agricultural applications, drought monitoring and forestry.
