Meet Keith Still&Marcel Altenburg:
Prof Still is a leading expert in the field of crowd science and risk assessment and his insight has been in high demand recently: estimating historical crowd sizes of previous US presidential inaugurations for the New York Times, from Lincoln to Obama.
In December, he provided analysis for the Washington Post on the safest number of people that New York’s Times Square could hold for New Year’s Eve celebrations. This expert analysis feeds into the University’s MSc in Crowd Safety and Risk Analysis, led by Prof Still, which trains industry professionals and students.
Marcel is currently working with Prof. Dr. G. Keith Still on the development of crowd safety and risk analysis consulting projects around the world. He has an extensive background in command and control as well as critical incident management. He has over 12 years of experience as an officer in the German Federal Armed Forces, and over 10 years of event and marathon experience from all over the world.
