  • Mr Craig Parker - Participant

    Data Science for Child Health Now in Ghana (DS-CHANGE) (Co-PI)

    I am a data scientist with over two years of experience at Wits RHI, where I apply my expertise in generative AI and machine learning to address the complex challenges of climate change and health in Africa. As part of the Climate and Health Directorate within the innovative HEAT Center, I collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to uncover novel insights and inform decision-making. Using prompt engineering and advanced computational techniques, I analyze and interpret large sets of health and climate data, revealing hidden relationships and potential risks. I also develop and implement data-driven solutions that aim to transform adaptation and mitigation strategies for the region. I am passionate about using my skills and knowledge to make a positive impact on the world and continuously seek opportunities for growth and development in the emerging field of generative AI.
