FUSE Lab aims to leverage geospatial big data, data-model fusion, and advanced interdisciplinary approaches to investigate the interaction loops between urban environmental change, human activities, and public health, with the ultimate goal of contributing to sustainable and healthy cities.
Our Research Focus:
- Urban Environmental Changes
- Human-Environment Spatiotemporal Interaction
- Impact of Environment and Human Activities on Public Health
- Urban Environment Improvement Theory and Adaptation Pathways
