About Maeve
Maeve is a medical doctor currently working in clinical research in viral hepatitis. Her focus is on marginalised populations, with an emphasis on health equity and accessible healthcare for all. Her research will address two critical challenges: advancing Hepatitis C elimination and strengthening Australia’s pandemic preparedness through vaccine development. She will undertake a DPhil in Clinical Medicine at the University of Oxford focused on developing a Controlled Human Infection Model (CHIM) for Hepatitis C. She aims to build Australia’s capacity in human challenge models to accelerate vaccine development first for Hepatitis C and then expand into vaccine developments for other infectious diseases, as well as strengthening national preparedness for future infectious diseases challenges.
