Margarita Mediavilla Pascual

(Burgos, 1969)

Licenciada en Ciencias Físicas y doctora por la Universidad de Valladolid. Es profesora titular en el Departamento de Ingeniería de Sistemas y Automática de la Escuela de Ingenierías Industriales de esta misma Universidad. Desde el año 2008 sus líneas de investigación se centran en la Dinámica de Sistemas aplicada a modelos energía-economía-medio ambiente y al estudio de la transición hacia las energías renovables en el contexto del agotamiento de los recursos fósiles y cambio climático. Ha sido una de las desarrolladoras de los modelos WoLiM, MEDEAS y WILIAM del GEEDS.En los últimos años su investigación se ha centrado en los límites biológicos de la transición energética, los usos de la tierra y la alimentación, con el desarrollo del módulo WILIAM-TERRA.

Sus artículos de divulgación y publicaciones no académicas se recogen en su blog Habas Contadas https://contadashabas.wordpress.com/. Es miembro del consejo editorial de la Revista 15/1515 (https://www.15-15-15.org/webzine/es/)

Margarita Mediavilla Pascual

(Burgos, 1969)

Graduate in Physics and PhD from the University of Valladolid. She is a professor in the Department of Systems Engineering and Automation at the School of Industrial Engineering at the same University. Since 2008, her lines of research have focused on Systems Dynamics applied to energy-economy-environment models (WoLiM, MEDEAS) and the study of the transition to renewable energies in the context of the depletion of fossil resources and climate change. Since 2016, she has been working on the European project MEDEAS (http://www.medeas.eu/), whose objective is the creation of a new tool for decision-making in the transition of the European Union towards a sustainable energy system.

She participates in publications and discussion forums such as the blog Ultima Llamada (http://www.eldiario.es/ultima- llamada/), the Magazine 15/1515 (https://www.15-15-15.org/webzine/es/) and the Transiciones Forum (http://forotransiciones.org/), as well as in movements to promote food sovereignty and ecological consumption (Ecogermen http://ecogermen.com/) and in Ecologists in Action.

Her popular articles and non-academic publications are collected in her blog Habas Contadas https://contadashabas.wordpress.com/.
