Kathryn Maitland is a Professor of Paediatric Tropical Infectious Diseases at the Faculty of Medicine and Director of the ICCARE Centre at the Global Centre of Health Innovation, Imperial College, London and an Honorary Fellow at MRC Clinical Trials Units, University College, London.
Over the last 20 years, Prof. Maitland has been based full-time at the East Africa, where she leads a research group that has highlighted the unique importance of emergency-care research as a highly targeted and cost-effective means of tackling childhood mortality in resource-limited sub-Saharan Africa. Her major research portfolio includes severe malaria, bacterial sepsis and severe malnutrition.
As a Clinical Investigator, Prof. Maitland’s work has focused upon understanding the pathophysiology and conducting clinical trials of emergency interventions to improve outcome. To enable such translational research to occur, she has built up a network of African sites and collaborations spanning the globe bringing sophisticated technologies to apply them in real life circumstances to study common diseases of Africa.
