Next Generation sequencing approaches to understand fevers of unknown origin in African populations
Endemic zoonoses such as brucellosis, leptospirosis, rickettsioses, bartonellosis, Rift Valley fever and many others, pose considerable challenges for clinicians in both human and animal health. Read more
Air quality impacts of wildfire smoke from contaminated peatlands
Air pollution is the most significant environmental risk in the UK, leading to economic costs of £20b per annum, and is responsible for significant health inequalities. Read more
A sustainability analysis of sea ports
Port expansion is often cited as a key enabler for commercial activity and national or regional economic prosperity, whether in developed or developing nations. Read more
Drones Against Climate Change (DACC): improving the estimates of forest fire smoke emissions
Project Rationale. The goal of the DACC project is to improve the monitoring of wildfires and the estimate of their emissions using uncrewed aerial systems (UAS), with a focus on the Amazon region. Read more
