Johannes is a researcher at the Oxford Programme for Sustainable Infrastructure Systems (OPSIS) and the Systemic Resilience Initiative at the Oxford Martin School. His research focuses on the development of new methodologies to characterise the resilience and (climate) risk exposure of shipping, trade and supply chains at a global scale. He also works on food security and fiscal impacts of food-shocks; modelling the optimal employment of fiscal tools that governments have at their disposal to mitigate shocks to food supply in their respective countries. Before joining OPSIS, Johannes worked at Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, where he applied techniques from statistical physics to study dynamic networks, and at the Alan Turing Institute in London, where he investigated the effects of supply-chain disruptions and economic shocks on the overall economy. Johannes holds a PhD in Quantum Gravity from the University of Heidelberg in Germany, completed at the Institute for Theoretical Physics.
