Qinqin Kong
Postdoctoral Scholar, General Internal Medicine
BioI am currently a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Departments of Medicine and Health Policy at Stanford University, after earning my PhD in Atmospheric Science from Purdue University. My research examines the physical drivers and societal impacts of extreme heat. My PhD work focused on how land–atmosphere interactions shape human heat stress and on the economic and energy impacts of increasing heat stress under climate change. At Stanford, my postdoctoral research focuses on the public health impacts of heat, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
My ongoing projects include: (1) evaluating the effects of dry versus humid prenatal heat exposure on child stunting in India; and (2) developing a data-driven framework to address a longstanding question in heat-health research: how much should humidity factor into the measurement of human heat stress? My methodological expertise spans climate modeling, human biophysics modeling, and empirical causal inference. -
