As co-director of the Centre for Decision Analysis and Risk Management he is interested in multi-disciplinary approaches to the management of risk in a range of sectors and he has been working increasingly on projects focused on the development and application of decision-making and risk management strategies in public health, occupational safety and the environment (natural and built). More recent work has considered the way that decisions are made and the role of stakeholder values. John Watt is an Associate Professor in Risk Management and his research has largely focussed on the science that underpins risk assessment of pollutant effects on human health and the environment.
