Visceral leishmaniasis

Dr James Wilson is an infectious diseases and internal medicine physician in the UK. In October 2022 he started a PhD with the Infectious Diseases Data Observatory and the Oxford Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health. Under the supervision of Professor Philippe Guerin, Dr Kasia Stepniewska and Dr Prabin Dahal, his PhD will explore clinical trial data in visceral leishmaniasis, specifically the application of individual-patient data (IPD) meta-analysis to better understand heterogeneity in patient outcomes.

James obtained his undergraduate degree in physics at Oxford University before completing a masters in medical statistics at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and graduate entry medicine at Warwick University (MbChB). He has subsequently been working as a clinician in London and Manchester, during which time he has completed a diploma in tropical medicine and hygiene (DTM&H) and spent time investigating novel TB diagnostics in Perú.
