Nicole Cowell is a Research Fellow at Imperial College London's Centre for Environmental Policy, affiliated with the Faculty of Natural Sciences, and serves as a Hoffmann Fellow in Air Quality at the World Economic Forum. She bridges air quality science, health impacts, and climate policy through interdisciplinary research combining geography, sensor technology, and urban sustainability.
- PhD in Environmental Health and Risk Management from University of Birmingham (2023)
- BSc in Geography from King's College London (2018)
Her research focuses on systems approaches to urban air quality, with emphasis on equitable city planning, low-cost IoT sensor networks, and translating scientific findings into policy. She explores co-benefits of air quality interventions, digital twin applications for pollution control, and indoor air quality implications in healthcare and residential settings.
Recent publications highlight her expertise in sensor validation, nested sensor network design, and policy translation frameworks. She actively contributes to global initiatives through leadership roles in the IGAC Allin Wayra group and co-chairing the Citizen Science Global Partnership sensors group.
