Emilie is a postdoctoral researcher in the Pathogen Dynamics Unit at the University of Cambridge. Her research focuses on developing mathematical and statistical models to understand the drivers of arboviral transmission, assess future epidemic potential, and evaluate the impact of interventions. She is particularly interested in understanding the role of immunity, climate and behaviour on outbreak dynamics, and her current work involves modelling vaccine and Wolbachia-based strategies for dengue control.

Katharine Sherratt is a research fellow at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Her research is on real time analysis and modelling during public health crises with a particular focus on rapid evidence synthesis and methods for evaluating the quality and impact of modelling work. She is particularly interested in developing and evaluating collaborative “team science” approaches to modelling work during infectious disease outbreaks. Previously Katharine worked at the Wellcome trust before training in epidemiology.

Joe Hilton is a research fellow in mathematical modelling at the Manchester Centre for Health Economics (MCHE) within the University of Manchester, with a background in infectious disease epidemiology. He is interested in the role of population heterogeneity in different aspects of public health, ranging from household-level patterns of viral transmission to risk-stratified screening and treatment programs for non-communicable diseases.
