Hüseyin Küçükali
I am a public health researcher experienced in artificial intelligence, behaviour change and systems thinking. My research aims to innovate in non-communicable disease prevention, particularly in urban environments.
I have a background in Medicine and a PhD in Public Health, both from Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa. I led health promotion activities and research and innovation projects in local health administrations in Istanbul. I taught public health, epidemiology and evidence-based medicine courses at Istanbul Medipol University. I did postdoctoral research at Queen's University Belfast exploring the causal effects of the urban environment and place-based interventions on health behaviours and non-communicable disease risk (including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, dementia, and depression).
Currently, I am working at Utrecht University, Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences contributing to the International Human Exposome Network.
My works have been supported by the Turkish Green Crescent Society, Heart Research UK, The Alan Turing Institute, UK Research and Innovation, European Commission and numerous colleagues.
