Caroline Colijn

Caroline's research program focuses on the intersection of mathematics, statistics, evolution and epidemiology to understand and predict the dynamics of infectious diseases. 

She is probably most known for my work on the COVID-19 pandemic, her contributions to genomic epidemiology and phylogenetics, and her work on modelling the dynamics and evolution of pathogen populations. 

Caroline's research program is rooted in applied mathematics and statistics, and is highly interdisciplinary, spanning mathematics, statistics, evolution and infectious disease.
