Neelam Kalita is a Senior Research Fellow in Healthcare Modelling at Southampton Health Technology Assessments Centre (SHTAC), University of Southampton. She specializes in economic evaluations of health technologies and contributes to evidence reviews for NICE programs, spanning oncology, retinal conditions, and public health interventions. Her primary research focus includes adolescent health, non-communicable diseases, and global health equity.

Her work history includes roles at a pharmaceutical consultancy firm and as a research assistant at the School of Health and Related Research (ScHARR), University of Sheffield. She collaborates with the MRC LEU on behavioral interventions to improve adolescent health outcomes. Neelam is affiliated with several University of Southampton campuses, including Highfield Campus and University Hospital Southampton.

Neelam’s research publications (2021–2023) emphasize cost-effectiveness analyses of treatments for ulcerative colitis, multiple myeloma, uterine fibroids, and other conditions. These studies often intersect with pharmacoeconomics, gene therapy, and rare disease interventions. Her teaching contributions include the module MEDI6233: Health Economics for Public Health and training courses on health economics through SHTAC.

No scientific awards are listed in her profile. She has supervised no formally registered PhD students, though her NIHR Pre-Doctoral Fellowship (2019–2021) funded £60,462 demonstrates prior research engagement. Current projects include the Engaging Adolescents in Changing Behaviour (EACH-B) initiative.

Neelam is part of interdisciplinary research teams at SHTAC and collaborates with external groups like MRC LEU to advance healthcare modelling and global health strategies.
