Felix Creutzig heads the group "Land use, infrastructures and transport" at the Mercator Research Institute on Global Commons and Climate Change in Berlin, following postdoctoral positions in Princeton and Berkeley. Felix was lead author of the Fifth IPCC Assessment Report on transportation, and lead analyst of the Global Energy Assessment transport chapter. He teaches Industrial Metabolism, Urban Economics and Climate Change. His research interests focus on the role of urban infrastructures for climate change mitigation, inter alia based on spatially explicit economic models of urban transport and land rent. Dr. Creutzig obtained his PhD in Computational Neuroscience at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin after graduating in Theoretical Physics from the University of Cambridge.
