Nanina is an epidemiologist and mathematician whose work focuses on HIV and other sexually transmitted infections. She completed her PhD at ISPM within the IeDEA-SA collaboration, evaluating ART roll-out in sub-Saharan Africa with a focus on ART initiation, loss to follow-up, and mortality. After her PhD, she remained involved in IeDEA, supporting PhD students in Malawi and Zimbabwe, and also participated in the Swiss National COVID-19 Science Task Force’s data and modelling group. She then spent two years in South Africa at UCT on a Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) Postdoc.Mobility fellowship, focusing on improving mathematical modelling of HIV in key populations. Now back in Switzerland, based at ISPM and the University Hospital Zurich and supported by an SNSF Return.CH fellowship, she continues her work on HIV and is expanding her research to include other STIs.
