Biography

Flora Brocza first joined IIASA as part of the YSSP program in 2021. Currently, she is a researcher in the Pollution Management Research Group of the IIASA Energy, Climate, and Environment Program. She works with the GAINS model, focusing on non-CO2 greenhouse gases and global human mercury emission modeling, as well as model development. Her work is contributing to the non-CO2 greenhouse gas projections within the EU Reference Scenarios. She is also serving on the Technical Expert Roster of the Open-Ended Science Group of the Minamata Convention on Mercury.

As part of her PhD project with the School of Chemical and Process Engineering at the University of Leeds, UK, she is researching anthropogenic mercury emissions and emission abatement measures in a technical and policy context. Prior to joining IIASA, she completed a bachelor's and a master's degree in Geosciences at the University of Vienna, Austria with exchange and research visits to the Universities of Belgrade, Serbia, and Haskoli Islands, Iceland. She also holds a master's degree in Bioenergy from the University of Leeds.
