Julia Bielicki

Julia is a pediatrician and a researcher at the St George's University of London and the University Children's Hospital Basel and holds a Masters's of Public Health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Julia was part of the core team of the Antibiotic Resistance and Prescribing in European Children project, one of the largest international collaborations on antibiotic use and antimicrobial resistance in children to date. Her current research focuses on developing appropriate surveillance methodology to assess childhood antibiotic resistance and make surveillance data accessible for clinical practice. Recently Julia took the lead in developing a successful proposal for a large UK-based randomized factorial trial of antibiotic dose and duration in childhood community-acquired pneumonia under the National Institute for Health Research Health Technology Assessment program. She is looking forward to continuing juggling between the UK and Switzerland.
