Cliff Kerr

Cliff Kerr | cliff@thekerrlab.com | Full CV

Cliff is a reformed physicist, having completed a PhD in that field in 2009 at the University of Sydney. He recently received an Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Research Award, and moved to the University of Sydney at the end of 2014. Before that he was a postdoctoral fellow at SUNY Downstate, investigating large-scale thalamocortical network models of the sensorimotor system. He also currently holds a position as a Senior Research Associate at the Kirby Institute in Australia, developing models of HIV transmission to advise governments on optimal budget allocations. Lastly, he co-directs Cingulate Consulting, a data analytics firm.
