Xuemei Zhang is a Research Assistant and PhD Candidate at the Melbourne School of Population and Global Health, and visiting scholar at the University of Cambridge. Xuemei is supporting the projects related to the economic impacts of hearing loss in Australia. Xuemei’s PhD research is to investigate the distribution of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in transitional economy like China using the national representative longitudinal survey. Xuemei is also participating in assessing the cost-effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) on CVD screening in Australia, UK, and Singapore. 

I'm a medical doctor from Malaysia currently pursuing my MPhil in Population Health Sciences at Cambridge. My interest lies in public health and more specifically in expanding AI/digital health use in the clinical setting.

A public health enthusiast with an interest in fostering health equity.

I am a Senior Research Associate based in the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Unit in the Dept of Public Health & Primary Care, where I also hold an affiliation to the NHS Blood & Transplant Research Unit. My research focuses on the use of simulation modelling to evaluate novel public health strategies both in terms of clinical outcomes and cost-effectiveness.

I am in my final year of my PhD working on modelling and epidemiology for infant immunisation in England. I have used a previously developed model to estimate the potential number cases prevented by an infant MenACWY vaccine. I also developed my own varicella and herpes zoster model to investigate the impact of adding a varicella containing vaccine to the infant immunisation schedule. Following the transmission modelling I also developed a health economic model to investigate the cost effectiveness of this programme.
