Detection & attribution of human health is one of the fasting growing fields in climate science - and you can be part of our team working on exactly that - you only have 5 days remaining to apply though 😀.

And not to mention that in the months, weeks, and years after this flood, there will be a longer-term health toll related to infectious diseases, mental health, and inequalities - the media don't revisit events so this is always less talked about.
Yet another reminder that climate change increases the rainfall during intense storms, increasing the risks of flooding and casualties. At least 13 dead in flash floods in Spain:

Extremely proud of Dr @emily_vosper for passing her PhD with flying colours. Emily has created a generative AI method of downscaling tropical cyclones around the world to hazard-relevant scales. Using her methods we can now investigate the vulnerabilities of exposed populations👇

Very happy with our new paper in @TheLancetPlanet today, where we give a structured expert judgement on all the ways weather and climate can lead to ill-health in the UK. It's just the beginning of the conversation

Very useful resource on Health Attribution!.
NEW 🌡️🏥 We built a platform to track attribution science on the health impacts of climate change, building on our work last year with @WellcomeTrust. Hopefully useful for journalists, climate litigation, & other scientists. Check it out: Please RT!

20yrs ago Valdes moved to Bristol and our climate/biochemistry group (BRIDGE) was born. We celebrated our anniversary by bringing back many of our alumni. I love co-leading the group with @OceanFMonteiro - life is a lot of fun when you have such friendly and exciting colleagues❤️
