Senior Research Fellow

Doherty Institute, University of Melbourne

Dr Trish Campbell is an infectious diseases modeller with a background in mathematics. During post-doctoral studies, Dr Campbell has developed models across a diverse range of diseases, including COVID-19, pertussis, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), scabies and group A Streptococcus. Dr Campbell’s predominant research interests centre around using modelling to inform infectious disease control policies, particularly in disadvantaged populations and settings with limited information available for model development, with a current focus on scabies and soil-transmitted helminths. Since March 2020, Dr Campbell has been a member of a multidisciplinary team modelling the anticipated clinical requirements of potential COVID-19 outbreaks in Australia and Pacific Island countries, with modelling results and interpretation presented to health departments in each country to assist with their preparedness planning.
