Jose Escribano

Dr. Jose Escribano is a Lecturer in Aviation & Logistics at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering within the Faculty of Engineering at Imperial College London. His research focuses on humanitarian logistics optimization, AI-driven airspace management, and urban resilience strategies. He holds a First Class Honours bachelor’s degree (2015) and a PhD (2021) from Imperial College London. Dr. Escribano is affiliated with the Centre for Transport Engineering and Modelling and the Transport Systems and Logistics Project D-Risk SHIFT.

His academic qualifications include a BEng in Engineering and a PhD in Civil Engineering, both from Imperial College London. His professional affiliations include the Institution of Civil Engineers, Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He has received the 2023 Transportation Research Board Best Paper Award and a JSPS Fellowship for urban evacuation modelling.

Dr. Escribano’s research integrates stochastic modelling, machine learning, and simulation to address challenges in humanitarian response, UAV coordination for disaster relief, and airspace safety. His work emphasizes endogenous value-of-information analysis and the application of cutting-edge technologies to enhance societal resilience. He has collaborated with the United Nations World Food Programme on UAV deployment models for humanitarian contexts.

His recent publications span topics like air traffic network resilience, autonomous vehicle optimization, and last-mile delivery mechanisms. He advises doctoral candidates in transportation systems, logistics, and air traffic management, offering opportunities for PhD research in these domains.
