Philip Bejon

Director Modernising Medical Microbiology

I was Director of the KEMRI-Wellcome Trust Research Programme up to January 2024, and was based in Kenya for 10 years.  I am now based in Oxford, as Director of the Modernising Medical Microbiology Unit, where I work on antimicrobial resistance, bone infection, and pathogen genomics.   I continue to work with colleagues based in Kenya on controlled human malaria infection studies, and on evaluations of malaria vaccines in the field, on validating definitions of severe malaria, studies of naturally acquired immunity to malaria, evaluations of Ebola and Yellow Fever vaccines, and on the epidemiology and immunology of COVID in Kenya.
