Why did you choose Lund University?

IIIEE’s integrative and solution-oriented approach to sustainability, which recognizes it as a systemic, interdisciplinary challenge requiring collaboration across policy, industry, and society, closely aligns with my values. 

Its emphasis on real-world impact and transformative change offers an ideal environment to contribute to and learn from a research community leading sustainability research.

Can you briefly describe your current research?

My current research explores how AI can untangle the socio-technical complexities of sustainability. 

By integrating and systematically analyzing multiple forms of sustainability data using AI techniques, I assess global sustainability performance and offer predictive insights for policymakers, industry, and global sustainability initiatives.

What will be your main research focus during your time at Lund University?

At Lund, I will develop AI-driven tools to map and benchmark sustainability strategies for supply chain decarbonisation and responsible governance, while forecasting their impact for industry and policymakers. 

I will also advance dialogue on the societal role of AI by examining its impacts on sustainability and co-shaping its future through collaboration with industry and academia.
