Alicia Gill
Postdoctoral Researcher
Alicia Gill is a postdoctoral researcher in Ben Cooper’s Drug-Resistant Infections and Disease Dynamics (DRIaDD) group. Her research focuses on using statistical modelling to inform the design and analysis of vaccine trials, in particular for Lassa fever vaccine candidates. She is broadly interested in the application of Bayesian statistics to infectious disease dynamics.
Alicia recently completed her PhD at the University of Warwick, where she used particle Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to infer time-varying reproduction numbers from both genomic and epidemiological data. Before her PhD, she worked as a Medical Statistician at the Birmingham Clinical Trials Unit.
