My name is Phan Thi Loan (Lizzie) and currently I am living in Round Rock city, Texas, the USA. I received my PhD from the International Doctoral Degree program in Climate Change and Sustainable Development, National Taiwan University, Taiwan in June 2022. My research interests are very broad but are mainly concerned with climate change adapatation, adaptive capacity, political ecology, local community engagement, protected area management, ecotourism and development issues. My studies have combinations of both qualitative and quantitative methods. I have years of experience using quantitative methods include climate modelling (such as Mankendall), spatial analysis (GIS) and remote sensing; and qualitative methods such as in-depth interview, focus group discussion, text analysis, systematic review, People participation GIS.

Dr. Shawn Tsai is a dedicated and passionate scientist with a strong background in nutrition and food science. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Horticulture and Landscape Architecture from National Taiwan University in 2013 and his Master of Science degree in Food Science and Technology from the same university in 2018. In 2023, he completed his Ph.D. in Nutrition and Food Science from the University of Maryland, College Park. During his graduate studies, Dr. Tsai conducted research on the impact of diet on chronic diseases, with a focus on the role of phytochemicals in preventing and treating obesity and diabetes. His work has been published in several reputable journals and has been presented at various conferences.
