Presentation / Conference Contribution
Milligan, G., Nica-Avram, G., Harvey, J., & Goulding, J. (2024, May). Foodinsecurity.london: Developing a food-insecurity prevalence map for London - a machine learning from food-sharing footprints. Presented at 2nd Digital Footprints Conference: Linking Digital Data for Social Impact, Bristol, UK

Introduction & Background
The ability of policymakers to positively transform food environments requires robust empirical evidence that can inform decisions. At present, there is limited data on food-insecurity in the UK that can be used to inform i...

Utilising User Data from a Food-Sharing App to Evidence the "Heat-or-Eat" Dilemma (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Semple, T., Harvey, J., Rodrigues, L., Gillott, M., Figueredo, G., & Nica-Avram, G. (2024, May). Utilising User Data from a Food-Sharing App to Evidence the "Heat-or-Eat" Dilemma. Presented at 2nd Digital Footprints Conference: Linking Digital Data for Social Impact, Bristol, UK

Introduction & Background
Previous literature has found that financially vulnerable households often make involuntary spending trade-offs between necessities, particularly energy and food. This effect is especially pronounced during winter, when hom... Read More about Utilising User Data from a Food-Sharing App to Evidence the "Heat-or-Eat" Dilemma.

An empirical critique of the low income low energy efficiency approach to measuring fuel poverty (2024)
Journal Article
Semple, T., Rodrigues, L., Harvey, J., Figueredo, G., Nica-Avram, G., Gillott, M., …Goulding, J. (2024). An empirical critique of the low income low energy efficiency approach to measuring fuel poverty. Energy Policy, 186, Article 114014. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2024.114014

Fuel poverty is a complex socioenvironmental issue of increasing global significance. In England, fuel poverty is assessed via the Low Income Low Energy Efficiency (LILEE) indicator, yet concerns exist regarding the efficacy of this metric given its...

Journal Article
Mansilla, R., Long, G., Welham, S., Harvey, J., Lukinova, E., Nica-Avram, G., …Goulding, J. (2024). Detecting iodine deficiency risks from dietary transitions using shopping data. Scientific Reports, 14(1), Article 1017. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-50180-7

Plant-based product replacements are gaining popularity. However, the long-term health implications remain poorly understood, and available methods, though accurate, are expensive and burdensome, impeding the study of sufficiently large cohorts. To i...
