Bianca Carducci is a nutrition scientist, specializing in the linkage between food systems, nutrition, and environmental sustainability. Bianca received her PhD from University of Toronto in Nutritional Sciences with a Collaborative Specialization in Global Health where her dissertation aimed to improve the understanding of the food environment and its relationship with diet-related health outcomes in school-aged children and adolescents in low- and middle- income countries, using Pakistan as a case study. In addition, she holds a Master of Science in Nutritional Sciences from University of Guelph. Prior to her PhD, Dr. Carducci worked at SickKids Centre for Global Child Health for eight years conducting research and capacity building in low- and middle- income countries on effective health and nutrition interventions for women, children and adolescents. Most recently, she was a Canadian Institutes of Health Research Banting Postdoctoral Fellow at Berman Institute of Bioethics and Bloomberg School of Public Health at Johns Hopkins University. At Columbia University's Climate School, she is working to expand the Food for Humanity Initiative. This includes developing cut-offs for food system indicators to measure and monitor performance particularly as it relates to sustainable and healthy diets and nutrition; just transformations for healthy food systems, including economic and policy incentives; as well as modelling the effect of climate variability on crops and dietary diversity.
