I had the opportunity to participate as an invited speaker at the 1st North Florida Wildfire Science & Technology Workshop, an interdisciplinary event bringing together researchers, practitioners, and community partners working across wildfire science, infrastructure, artificial intelligence, data science, ecology, emergency response, and community resilience.

My presentation focused on infrastructure resilience under wildfire risk, highlighting the need to better understand how critical infrastructure systems can prepare for, respond to, and recover from wildfire events.

The workshop brought together expertise spanning wildfire cyberinfrastructure, atmospheric dynamics, fire ecology, evacuation and human mobility, prescribed burning, regional planning, and emergency response. The discussions also provided an important opportunity to strengthen interdisciplinary collaboration across FSU, the RIDER Center, regional agencies, and community partners.
