Axel Michaelowa, University of Zurich Author InformationAnthony Patt is Professor of Human-Environment Systems at ETH Zurich, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. He had been a practicing environmental lawyer in the United States when his concern about climate change led him to Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government, where he earned a PhD for research on the relationship between science, engineering and climate change governance. Since moving to Europe in 2006, he has turned his attention to the policy challenges associated with scaling up low-carbon technologies. In 2012 he received the prestigious European Research Council award to support his team's research on the environmental, social and institutional challenges of solar energy development. From 2011–14 he participated in numerous capacities in the preparation of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment Report, including as Lead Author on the role of risk and uncertainty in climate policy, and as a member of the writing team of the Summary for Policymakers for the IPCC's Mitigation of Climate Change report.
