Minerva Singh, PhD

Minerva joined the Center for Environmental Policy (CEP), Imperial College London as a Research Fellow in 2018. Before that, she completed a PhD from the University of Cambridge in 2017 where she focussed on implementing data science techniques for quantifying the impact of forest loss on tropical ecosystems. She holds an MPhil (School of Geography and Environment) and an MSc (Department of Engineering) from Oxford University. She has nearly 10 year's experience in conducting academic research at the interface of tropical ecology, data science, earth observation (EO), and artificial intelligence (AI)and published 14 first-author peer-reviewed papers in international journals since 2013 including PLoS One. She has obtained research funding of approximately £275,000 since 2018 and provided research, consultancy, and data science support to startups and industry partners including Treeconomy and Morphobotics LLC. She is a Fellow of the Royal Geographic Society (RGS)and Royal Statistical Society (RSS) as well as serving as an Associate Fellow at the Data Science Institute, Imperial College London. She is also a best selling course-instructor on the online MOOC platform Udemy where she provides online teaching to more than 71,000 students from across the world on machine learning, earth observation, and deep learning related topic
