Mobile phone data from 13 million people in Spain—more than a quarter of the population—show that hot days reduce individual mobility, especially among older people. According to the authors, climate change could threaten the dynamism of cities. In PNAS Nexus: https://ow.ly/ip2u50Z3fgu

Seeing how happy people are truly moves us. All the effort is worth it! Special thanks go to @sorianopanos.bsky.social @acardillo.bsky.social @carmen-cabrera.bsky.social Bea, Hugo, Pablo, Francesca, Santi, Carlos, Luciano. All of them are giving their very best!

Hey! We (with @ruthneville20.bsky.social ) have a new paper investigating students perceptions on the use of Generative AI in the context of Higher Education - www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Widely used but barely trusted: understanding student perceptions on the use of generative AI in higher education

The rapid proliferation of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) tools such as ChatGPT is transforming how students learn, create and engage with knowledge. Yet, little is known about how studen...

Seeking to leverage the real time availability of mobile phone data, we (@carmencabarn.bsky.social & Miguel) have been tracking changes in Meta user counts, to assess the impacts of the DANA in Valencia Spain. Here a policy brief published by Pop. Europe 👉🏻 is.gd/5qucab

The 2024 Valencia floods hit close to home for me. By analysing real-time digital trace data, we can track population shifts and guide timely disaster response efforts. Check out the analysis I’ve been working on with @Fcorowe & @MiguelGLeonardo: shorturl.at/2VX4C

Last Friday I presented some first analysis of our ESRC project DEBIAS w/ @carmencabarn.bsky.social . In this first stage we are focusing on measuring and identifying key predictors of biases in human mobility data extracted from mobile phone apps. An unexpected finding 👇
