Profile

Jamie Griffin is a Lecturer in Applied Probability. His main research area is modelling malaria transmission and control. This research has involved synthesising multiple types of data to be able to make predictions of the impact of interventions in reducing malaria transmission. He has advised policymakers at the WHO on a number of questions covering vaccines and other interventions against malaria. He has also worked on more general problems of statistical inference for infectious diseases.

Before joining Queen Mary, he held an MRC Methodology fellowship at Imperial College. He continues to collaborate with the malaria modelling group there. He also collaborates with a number of staff in the Malaria Centre at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
