Marcos Quijal

Investigador predoctoral

Marcos Quijal is a predoctoral researcher working in the EU-funded project EARLY-ADAPT (“Signs of Early Adaptation to Climate Change”) at ISGlobal.

He started his scientific career at the Public Health Agency of Barcelona working as a researcher for the H2020 Climate-fit.City project. The objective of this health case-study was to study the small area association between heat and mortality in the city of Barcelona.


Then, he joined ISGlobal as part of the H2020 Blue-Action project where he investigated the predictability of temperature attributable mortality forecasts for a very large ensemble of European regions.

Now, he is part of EARLY-ADAPT (ERC-CoG) team. Here, he will write his doctoral thesis, investigating further the relationship between environmental factors and health outcomes, in particular the scales and spatial heterogeneity of these factors with different layers of data.
