Mark Pritchard

Mathematical Modeller

Mark is a mathematical modeller in the Drug-Resistant Infections and Disease Dynamics group (DRIaDD). His work combines mathematical models and causal inference methods to explore individual- and population-level effects of antimicrobial treatments and infection-prevention measures. He is working on the PrIMAVeRa project, exploring potential pathways for micro-organisms to develop resistance to monoclonal antibodies. 

Before starting this role, Mark completed a DPhil [PhD] on "Using routinely collected data to inform infection-prevention policy decisions" (submitted January 2025), funded by the National Institute for Health Research Health Protection Research Unit in Emerging and Zoonotic Infections. Previous experience includes resident doctor roles in NHS hospitals, and in public health medicine at local authorities and the United Kingdom Health Security Agency. 

Mark introduces his DPhil project: Natural immune boosting can cause synchrony in susceptibility and outbreaks of respiratory infections with rapidly waning immunity​.
