Dr Olimpia Lamberti

Research Fellow

United Kingdom

Jump to: Affiliations Teaching Research Publications

I am a Research Fellow in Health Economics and Epidemiology in the Department of Global Health and Development, and serve as the Early Career Representative for the Global Health Economics Centre at LSHTM.

 

My main research interests lie in using novel methods to evaluate the burden of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) conditions and neglected tropical diseases among women of reproductive age living in sub-Saharan Africa. I am currently working on the HIGH Horizons project where I am evaluating the economic burden of extreme heat on pregnant women in Zimbabwe, South Africa and Sweden.

 

I recently completed my PhD at LSHTM (March 2025), which focused on analysing the associations between female genital schistosomiasis and other SRH conditions, and evaluating the cost-effectiveness of different integrated screening strategies in Zambia.

 

Prior to joining LSHTM, I worked in research at the University of Oxford. I obtained my MSc in Global Health from the University of Oxofrd and hold a BSc in Physics and Philosophy from King's College London.
