Karin Pfeffer

Professor, Infrastructuring Urban Futures, University of Twente
Karin Pfeffer is Professor of Infrastructuring Urban Futures and Vice-dean Research at the Faculty of Geo-Information and Earth Observation (ITC) of the University of Twente, the Netherlands (NL). She obtained her Ph.D. degree in Physical Geography from Utrecht University in 2003 and worked in the Social Sciences domain at the University of Amsterdam, the NL, prior to her appointment at ITC in 2017. With her team, she investigates how research can engage with, and participate in, the development of new urban planning practices addressing issues of urban sustainability.

She has participated in several Dutch and EU-funded research programmes, e.g. on spatial information infrastructures and spatial knowledge management in India. Her current projects focus, among others, on emerging urbanisation patterns in India, on informal economies and creative industries strategies in Indonesian Kampongs, on access to urban infrastructures or the design and planning of public spaces. She has published in the field of Urban Studies, Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation; has been Co-Editor of the book Geographies of Urban Governance; and Guest Editor of the Special Issues of Geo-Information and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Remote Sensing-Based Urban Planning Indicators.

Kata Farkas

Environmental Virologist, School of Natural Sciences, Bangor University
I competed my PhD in microbiology at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand in 2014. My research focused on the fate and behaviour of enteric viruses in groundwater. After finishing my studies, I was involved in various project that uses viral metagenomics approaches to identify viruses (both known and novel) in various ecosystems. Since 2015, I have been working at the Bangor University, on the Viraqua Project (www.viraqua.uk; 2015-2018) and at the Shellfish Centre (2019-2022) and on th eimplementation of wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) for SARS-CoV-2 and other viral pathogens (2020, ongoing).

My research focuses on the ecology and survival of viruses in the aquatic environment with a special interest in the fate of enteric viruses. Enteric viruses are responsible for the majority of gastroenteral illnesses globally putting an enormous burden on healthcare systems and the wider economy. These pathogens are often found in water reservoirs (recreational and drinking water sources, shellfish harvesting areas) and hence responsible for water- and foodborne outbreaks. I am also leading the R&D activities for the Welsh WBE programme.
