    Dr. Malik received her Ph.D. in Medical Anthropology from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, UK. She brings extensive academic and research experience from leading public health institutions, working with local governments and international organizations.

    Dr. Malik’s research explores the qualitative and socio-cultural dimensions of infectious disease transmission, with a cross-cutting emphasis on health disparities and equitable access to care. Her work leverages ethnographic, participatory, and mixed-methods approaches, particularly in the context of community-based surveillance and global health programs.

    In addition to infectious disease surveillance, Dr. Malik applies social and behavioral science insights to public health policymaking, program implementation, strategic vaccine communication, and health systems strengthening. Most recently, she has worked in partnership with the Ministry of Health in Chad, supporting the development of a national immunization strategy and workforce capacity-building efforts aligned with the WHO’s Immunization Agenda 2030.

    With over two decades of global health experience, Dr. Malik has conducted research in the U.S., Guatemala, Chad, Kenya, Mozambique, India, and Pakistan, and currently serves on the Technical Advisory Group on Behavioural Sciences for Better Health at the World Health Organization.
