Roger Kouyos is Associate Professor of Quantitative Infectious Disease Biology at the University of Zurich.
He completed his physics degree at ETH Zurich 2004 followed by a PhD 2008 in mathematical and computational biology, also at ETHZ. Subsequently, he conducted postdoctoral research on HIV epidemiology at the University Hospital Zurich, on antibiotic resistance at ETHZ, and on infectious-diseases dynamics and immunometrics at Princeton University. He serves as section editor for epidemiology and public health of PLoS Computational Biology, as a member of the scientific committee of the International Workshop of HIV and Hepatitis Observational Databases, and as co-head of the scientific board of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study
His current research focuses on computational and molecular approaches to infection and immunity with topics ranging from antimicrobial and antiviral resistance, molecular epidemiology, using transmission networks and mathematical models to assess public health interventions to studying the viral reservoir of HIV and the elicitation of broadly neutralizing antibodies.
