Anna Remes is a PhD researcher working on the TRIGGER project at the University of Oulu. She studies the effects of climate change on cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and collects data for the TRIGGER project at Oulu University Hospital by interviewing and sampling patients. Anna has a background in nursing, midwifery and a Master of Health Sciences. She has previous work experience in cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.

I am a social scientist at the Institute for Climate, Energy systems and Society (LIFE Institute, JOANNEUM Research) in Austria. Within the TRIGGER project, I am working on policy communication about the health impacts of climate change and providing recommendations for policy action.

I’m Francisca Toro, a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Barcelona in the Economics Theory Section. I am currently involved in the TRIGGER project, focusing on the macroeconomic quantification of climate change and its health-related impacts. My research interests include Environmental and Natural Resources Economics, Gender Economics, Regional Economics, and Policy Analysis. I employ methods like Multisectoral and Multiregional modeling, Econometrics, and Optimization to analyze emissions, the gender-environment nexus, and the economic implications under different scenarios, aiming to contribute evidence-based insights on sustainability and equity.
