KATHERINE SIDDLE, Ph.D.

Katie.Siddle

Katie was a postdoctoral fellow and research scientist in the Sabeti Lab where she investigated the evolution and epidemiology of viral pathogens, and the etiology of uncharacterized infections. Her research combined developing methods to improve the detection and assembly of viral genomes and applying these tools to surveil emerging infections, with a particular focus on viral hemorrhagic fevers and SARS-CoV-2.

Katie obtained her Ph.D. from the Institut Pasteur and the Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris, France, under Lluis Quintana-Murci, studying microRNA regulation in the human innate immune response to infection. Prior to this, Katie completed her BA and MPhil in Biological Anthropology at the University of Cambridge, UK.

Katie is currently an Assistant Professor in the department of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology at Brown University. She is also a core member of the Center for Computational Molecular Biology and an affiliate of the Brown Pandemic Center.
