Dr Marcus Keogh-Brown is an Associate Professor in the Department of Global Health and Development within the Faculty of Public Health and Policy at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM). His position is split between research focusing on macroeconomic modeling of health and serving as Deputy Programme Director for the school's public health distance learning program. Education: BSc in Mathematics and Statistics, Queen Mary University of London (1995-1998) MSc in Computer Studies, University of Essex (1998-1999) PhD in "A Statistical Model of Internet Traffic," Queen Mary University of London (1999-2004) PGCILT Modules 1 and 2, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (2008-2012) Dr Keogh-Brown's research focuses on analyzing the macro-economic impact of health disorders and developing macro-economic models in health contexts. His areas of interest include infectious diseases (SARS, influenza, COVID-19, tuberculosis, malaria) and non-communicable diseases (Alzheimer's Disease, Dementia). He specializes in health-related applications of Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) Modeling with GAMS, with current work on health and macroeconomic modeling of COVID-19, tuberculosis, child labor, and health-related food policies. His publication record shows a strong trend toward integrated macroeconomic-epidemiological modeling, particularly for infectious disease outbreaks and public health interventions. Recent work focuses on tuberculosis in India, Covid-19 impacts in Pakistan, and food policy interventions like the UK Soft Drinks Industry Levy. His research consistently applies economic modeling frameworks to evaluate the health and economic impacts of disease and health policies across multiple countries including Ghana, India, Thailand, Myanmar, UK, and China. Grants: Current: "Modelling the health social care and macroeconomic impacts of dementia policies in the UK" (NIHR, 2025-2026) Current: "Co-designing food system fiscal policy for healthy people and planet" (University of Oxford, 2022-2025) Completed: "COVID-19 vaccine scenario analysis for health economic and social impacts" (WHO, 2022) Completed: "Evaluation of the impact of the UK industry levy of sugar-sweetened beverages" (University of Cambridge, 2017-2023) Completed: "Macroeconomic Burden of Alzheimers in China" (Jansen Global Services LLC, 2014-2015) Dr Keogh-Brown is affiliated with several research centers at LSHTM including the Malaria Centre, Global Health Economics Centre, and Centre for Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases. His collaborative work spans multiple countries and addresses critical intersections between health, economics, and policy.
