Filiz is a Research Fellow at LSHTM, Department of Public Health, Environments and Society. She has worked in various environmental and health studies including management and assessment of environmental sustainability issues regarding climate change and health impact. Filiz currently works at LSHTM on the project, Policy and Implementation for Climate & Health Equity PAICE, funded by Wellcome Trust and led by UCL. In the project, she assists the development of models of the UK’s population to assess the cross-sector impact of policies on population health, health inequalities and GHG reductions across the various sectors. Apart from this project, she also works on LSHTM’s Triple C (Children, Cities and Climate) Project. She is leading a health impact model in the project to quantify the heat-related child (under-5) morbidity and mortality in the African cities with respect to future scenarios developed by various individual climate models. At LSHTM, she previously worked in the project, Complex Urban Systems for Sustainability and Health (CUSSH) led by UCL, and funded by the Wellcome Trust. In the project, she gave support for the development of evidence and methods for quantitative modelling of population health to examine the impact of alternative development strategies in the target cities. Furthermore, at LSHTM, she was involved in the EPSRC-funded project “ASPIRE” (Advancing School Performance: Indoor environmental quality, Resilience and Educational outcomes). During this time, she developed a mathematical model to quantify the impacts of indoor environmental changes (including air pollution and temperature) on the health of schoolchildren in the UK. Additionally, she gave support for the application of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis to identify the optimum pathways for improving indoor environmental quality and learning performance in low carbon UK school buildings through policy and practice.
