Deepti Singh

Deepti is an associate professor in the School of the Environment at Washington State University (WSU) where she leads the Climate Extremes and Impacts Lab. Her research focuses on advancing scientific understanding and predictability of climate extremes to inform efforts to build climate resilience. Her lab investigates the physical drivers and sources of predictability of extreme weather and climate events as well as the influence of climate variability and change. In addition, she also examines the societal impacts of climate variability and extremes on public health outcomes. She served as an author on the Fifth U.S. National Climate Assessment and on the National Academy of Sciences Committee on the Attribution of Extreme Weather and Climate Events and their Impacts. She has also been recognized as a Kavli Fellow by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. She received her Ph.D. from Stanford University in 2015 and completed postdoctoral training at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University before joining WSU in 2018.
