Veronika Huber

Veronika Huber is a Research Fellow at the Institute of Epidemiology (IBE) within the Medical Faculty of Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU Munich), specializing in climate change impacts on public health. Her current work focuses on attributing heat-related mortality and morbidity to anthropogenic climate change through temporal trend analysis and extreme event studies.

• Education:
  • PhD in Ecology (2005–2010), University of Potsdam
  • Master in Biology/Ecology (2001–2004), Ecole Normale Supérieure and Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris
  • Undergraduate Biology (1999–2001), University of Konstanz

Her research bridges epidemiology and climate science, with a focus on adaptive processes reducing heat vulnerability. She leads the ATTACH project, part of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, analyzing heat-related health outcomes over decades.

Recent publications highlight expertise in digital innovation and service systems, though unrelated to her current epidemiological work. Key themes include recombination of technologies, organizational identity in SMEs, and fairness perceptions in service adoption.

• Scientific Awards:
  • Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship (2021–present)

Previously held roles at Universidad Pablo de Olavide, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, and European Commission’s Joint Research Centre reflect interdisciplinary collaboration across climate science, epidemiology, and policy.
