个人简介

Marie-Louise Newell is Professor in Global Health and an infectious diseases Epidemiologist, her research on infections in pregnancy and childhood, in particular HIV, in resource-limited and resource-rich settings underpins her contribution to Health for All, across the Generations Marie-Louise Newell has a background in Medicine, Demography and Epidemiology; her research has focussed on maternal and child health, particularly infections and transmission from mother-to-child. At the University College London Institute of Child Health, she led a European cohort of HIV-infected pregnant women and their children, and was involved in research in developing countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Between late 2005 and late 2013, for eight years, she was based in rural KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa as Director of the Welcome Trust-funded Africa Centre for Health & Population Studies, University of KwaZulu-Natal where she initiated a broad innovative programme of research addressing the impact of HIV infection at a population, household and individual level. She established a partnership with the SA Department of Health in the Hlabisa sub-district to provide HIV treatment and care, resulting in nearly 30,000 28,500 HIV-infected people initiated on treatment by the time she left in 2013. Research from the Centre has shown that the HIV treatment provided in the public programme resulted in a substantial reduction of adult and child mortality, and has started to have an impact on HIV incidence. She initiated a large Treatment-as-Prevention cluster randomised trial in this rural area to evaluate whether early HIV treatment, immediate on HIV diagnosis rather than at a HIV-progression determined eligibility point, would reduce HIV incidence in the community. However, with success of HIV treatment also comes concern: her interest in infections in pregnant women and their children is now focussing on evaluating the mid- and longer term implications of exposure to infections and treatment for the woman and her child. She reviews for a large number of expert journals, is member of international expert review bodies and was appointed a Fellow of the UK Academy of Medical Sciences in 2012 and a Fellow of the University of KwaZulu-Natal in 2013, and received the prestigious award for her contribution to HIV science from the European AIDS Clinicians Society in 2013. At the University of Southampton she leads the Global Health Research Institute, which brings together research interests and expertise from across the University.
