Prince Michael Amegbor

Dr. Prince Michael Amegbor is Assistant Professor of Global and Environmental Health at New York University. As a health geographer, he investigates environmental and social determinants of health using big data and geospatial methods.

His research examines how climate change, air pollution, and urban environments contribute to health inequalities, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. He develops spatial models to visualize health risks associated with environmental exposures and socioeconomic factors.

Amegbor's publications analyze early-life environmental impacts on child growth, spatial patterns of dementia risk, and health outcomes in informal settlements. His work integrates remote sensing, demographic surveys, and registry data to identify vulnerable populations.

Prior to NYU, he was a postdoctoral fellow at Aarhus University's Big Data Centre for Environment and Health (BERTHA), contributing to EU Horizon projects on urban sustainability. His research informs policies addressing environmental health disparities.
