tong wu - Epidemiology

Author Information

Tong Wu is affiliated with the International Initiative on Spatial Lifecourse Epidemiology (ISLE) in Hong Kong and the Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing. These affiliations highlight Dr. Wu's involvement in both international and national research initiatives focused on spatial lifecourse epidemiology and eco-environmental sciences.

Research Contributions

Dr. Tong Wu has made significant contributions to the field of epidemiology, particularly focusing on spatial lifecourse epidemiology and its application in understanding noncommunicable diseases. Dr. Wu's research spans a variety of topics including the impact of the built environment on childhood obesity, access to green spaces and healthy food markets, and the development of spatial reporting standards. Notable works include systematic reviews and meta-analyses on access to bike lanes and walkability indices in relation to childhood obesity, as well as innovative approaches to anticipate the risk of reverse zoonosis. Dr. Wu's research is characterized by its interdisciplinary nature, combining public health, environmental sciences, and spatial analysis.
