Dr David Khoury is an outstanding interdisciplinary researcher who has pioneered statistical and modelling approaches to address critical questions in infection and immunity. Since receiving his PhD in 2016, he has authored 59 high-impact publications in top-tier journals including Nature Medicine and The Lancet Microbe.
Leveraging his background in applied mathematics, Dr Khoury has led methods to integrate clinical and laboratory data to deliver major impacts in malaria drug development, and COVID-19 and mpox vaccine policy. Among his many contributions, Dr Khoury was the first globally to identify an immune correlate of protection for COVID-19. He has innovated the way we assess new drugs for malaria, and he has also made major contributions to vaccine policy to combat the mpox pandemic.
