Despoina Teli
Despoina is an associate professor at the Division of Building Services Engineering. Her research focuses on indoor climate, with a particular interest in thermal environment, human comfort and the interaction between buildings and their occupants. Despoina has extensively worked with children’s thermal comfort in school classrooms, with the aim to increase understanding of the year-round indoor climate requirements for school environments. Her current research deals with building overheating and future climate adaptation for indoor thermal resilience. Despoina is also profile leader of 'Energy in Urban Development' of the Chalmers Energy Area of Advance and director of the master's programme 'Structural engineering and building technology' (MPSEB).
