Professor Katie Atkins

Professor of Infectious Disease Epidemiology

United Kingdom

Jump to: Affiliations Teaching Research Publications
I am an infectious disease modeller with a particular interest in evolutionary epidemiology. I hold a joint position between LSHTM and the University of Edinburgh Medical School. Group members are listed on my website katiito.com.

Affiliations
Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Dynamics
Faculty of Epidemiology and Population Health

Centres

Centre for Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases
Antimicrobial Resistance Centre
Global Health Economics Centre

Teaching
I am co-organiser of the hybrid Modern Techniques in Modelling at LSHTM.

Research
I work across epidemiology, phylogenetics and mathematical modelling. The areas where I am currently active include HIV transmission, antimicrobial resistance and vaccines (particularly PCV and those against RSV).
