Climate Scientist, National Centre for Climate Research, Danish Meteorological Institute I am a climate scientist (specialism in glaciology and ice sheet – climate interactions) in Denmark. I’ve been working at DMI for 14 years where I mostly run high resolution regional climate models in the polar regions and work on ice sheet processes. Much of this work is focused on understanding how quickly the big ice sheets (especially Greenland) will lose their ice and contribute to global sea level rise. Living only around 10 metres above sea level focuses the mind a bit..
PhD Candidate, Neuroscience, University of Sheffield I study neurovascular coupling, which is the link between blood flow and neural activity in the brain. When your brain cells become active they require a constant supply of blood to meet the increasing energy demands. My research uses pre-clinical models of human disease to characterise neurovascular function in dementia, and how cardiovascular disease affects the speed, severity, and progression of Alzheimer’s disease. In the hope that we may be able to decelerate the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.
