I am thrilled to share that my project FIREMOD has been funded by an #ERC Starting Grant. Very excited to embark on 5 years of research on wildfire modelling, to help improve predictions of when and why wildfires spread.

Wildfires are becoming a terrifying staple of summer, but how do we stop them?🔥 With Dr Francesco Restuccia’s (Francesco Restuccia) European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant project, FIREMOD, we might soon be able to predict when and why deadly wildfires spread🧯 loom.ly/7eie608 #ERCStG



Great start to the #ESFSS2024 with introduction and welcome from Prof Planas to the beautiful campus of Barcelona East School of Engineering (EEBE) in Barcelona, and with a fantastic plenary by Prof Rory Hadden on fire spread!



A large presence at #ESFSS2024 in Barcelona from KCL Engineering with Imogen, Alankrita, Elena and myself. Great poster presentations by both Immy and Ally, and great conversations and potential future collaborations with lots of participants. Fantastic conference!





We’re thrilled to announce that Prof David Moxey has been awarded a prestigious Royal Academy of Engineering Research Chair with the UK Atomic Energy Authority. 👏 He will work on new computer tools to model nuclear fusion - offering cleaner, safer energy with minimal waste 🌎 ♻️ loom.ly/wUmkTIE



Always an honour to be on the Fire Science Show 🔥 thank you so much for inviting me again, I really enjoyed talking about current and future research directions and also about my recently awarded ERC Starting grant on wildfire spread modelling.

🎉 Congratulations to the @SafeBattFI team for winning the 2024 Electrical Safety First Innovation Award at #EPSC24! SafeBatt’s critical work in #BatterySafety supports the UK’s electrification and #NetZero goals. A well-deserved win for advancing safer #EnergyStorage solutions 👏





I am delighted to announce that applications are now open for King’s AI+ Academic Fellowships. This prestigious Academic Fellowship supports 20 researchers advancing AI across all disciplines. Rachel Mills Wendy Hall Andrew Davison George A Constantinides kcl.ac.uk/jobs/role/king…
