معرفی
Dr Daniel Schillereff is an Associate Dean (Research Culture) and Senior Lecturer in Physical and Environmental Geography at King's College London's Department of Geography, part of the School of Global Affairs. He specializes in human-environment interactions, integrating paleoenvironmental methods with modern environmental monitoring. His work focuses on ecosystems like lakes, rivers, and peatlands, with recent emphasis on environmental pollution's health impacts. Dr Schillereff has held leadership roles in Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) initiatives, including chairing the Department's EDI Committee and co-leading a faculty workstream on attainment gaps. He advocates for Open Research and redefining academic success metrics. His academic career includes roles as Lecturer and Teaching Fellow at King's since 2015, following postdoctoral research on macronutrient dynamics in UK ecosystems. He completed his PhD in 2014 at the University of Liverpool, studying historical flood records in lake sediments.
