Dr James Watson

Sir Henry Dale Fellow

Dr James Watson is a statistician interested in improving the treatment of infectious diseases of global health importance.

His main work focuses on severe malaria, notably improving the definition of severe malaria in areas of high malaria transmission. We have estimated that a third of children diagnosed with severe malaria in high transmission settings, in fact, have another cause of severe illness.

Additionally, he is an investigator and study statistician for PLATCOV, a platform trial characterising in vivo antiviral effects of repurposed or novel drugs for COVID-19; and the CHARM project, which aims to develop a new methodology for the assessment of new antiparasitic drugs for the treatment of Chagas disease.
