Irene Garcia-Marti

I am currently working as a Data Scientist at the Dutch Met Office (KNMI) Data Lab, participating in projects estimating the impact that severe weather phenomena have at ground level. I am also a PhD candidate at the Geo-Information Processing (GIP) department at ITC, University of Twente, Netherlands. My thesis is at the intersection of different disciplines, such as machine learning, environmental modelling, citizen science, and public health. With my research I am engaged with public health specialists to design tick mitigation campaigns that enable healthier societies.
