Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Katherine J. Willis's research focuses on the intersection of human well-being, environmental sustainability, and biodiversity. Her work has investigated the global distribution of plants utilized by humans and explored strategies to enhance agricultural resilience in regions like sub-Saharan Africa through the prioritization of crop wild relatives, particularly in the context of climate change. Willis has also examined the local food security implications of biofuel crop production and contributed to understanding the future of tropical peatlands in Southeast Asia.
Her research extends to the development of technological solutions for environmental monitoring, such as the "HumBug" acoustic mosquito monitoring tool designed for budget smartphones, which utilizes Bayesian neural networks for automatic acoustic mosquito tagging. Additionally, her publications address broader environmental policy considerations, including a horizon scan to support policymaking related to chemical pollution and sustainable economies. Willis has also studied carbon storage and sequestration rates in trees.
