About Me

Nina Grant

I’m a climate scientist-in-training passionate about developing safe, equitable solutions to the climate crisis. As a Ph.D. candidate and research assistant, my research focuses on climate intervention, agriculture impacts, and applying machine learning to climate data. I’m committed to making complex science accessible and actionable through clear visualizations, communication, and policy engagement. Outside the lab, I work to bridge science and society as an AGU Local Science Partner and Solar Geo Society ambassador, engaging with decision-makers, media, and the public.


I strive to advance climate solutions from multiple angles—research, science communication, and policy—because time is short, and this is our moment to build a better future.
