Benn Sartorius
Honorary Visiting Research Fellow in Tropical Medicine
My work focuses on spatial-temporal modelling of disease burden and attributable determinants both at small-area resolution as well as at country and global scales. This has included child health and mortality as well as infectious disease burden (HIV, malaria) in sub-Saharan Africa and South Africa. The next phase of my research programme will focus specifically on the spatial-temporal modelling and estimation of antimicrobial resistance prevalence and attributable burden at global/country level scale by year.
