Payam Dadvand

Associate Research Professor Clima, contaminació atmosfèrica, natura i salut urbana | Medi ambient i salut al llarg de la vida

Payam Dadvand is a medical doctor by training and has a PhD in environmental epidemiology. For the last decade he has conducted pioneering studies on the impacts of both environmental stressors (e.g. air pollution) and environmental mitigation measures (e.g. green spaces) on maternal and child health applying his expertise in using remote sensing data, GIS-based spatial analytical methods, and spatiotemporal modelling approaches. He is the coordinator of the Barcelona Life Study Cohort (BiSC) and a co-editor-in-chief for the Environmental Research.
