Tamara Popic

Dr. Tamara Popic is a Senior Lecturer in Social/Public Policy at Queen Mary University of London's School of Politics and International Relations. Her research intersects public policy, comparative politics, and political communication, with special focus on healthcare politics and policy feedback effects. She examines how political competition, institutions, and ideas shape policy-making and citizen attitudes toward welfare systems.

Her core research investigates political determinants of health policy reforms and how attitudes toward healthcare systems are influenced by policy feedback mechanisms and ideological factors. Current projects explore governmental communication strategies during health crises and policy implementation challenges.

Popic's publications analyze comparative health policy reforms across European contexts, especially examining crisis impacts on welfare attitudes and institutional variations in pandemic responses. Her work demonstrates consistent methodological rigor in cross-national comparative analysis.

She has not received scientific awards as documented in the provided text.

Popic mentors doctoral research addressing comparative public policy, health politics, institutional change, and political communication. She has led international collaborations including the Health Politics in Europe handbook project.
