Dr. Justine Blanford is a Professor of GeoHealth at ITC, University of Twente. She addresses a variety of local and global health challenges across different spatial and temporal scales. Her work is centred around three main facets that include (i) risk: understanding where and when health risks are, the mechanisms driving risk (why) and who may be affected; (ii) prevention: what response and actions are needed where; and (iii) communication: what to communicate. She has a PhD in Biology from Imperial College, UK, an MPhil from the University of Leicester, UK and a BaH from Queen's University, Canada.
