Catherine Chittleborough is an epidemiologist in the BetterStart Group, and Deputy Head, School of Public Health. She returned to the University of Adelaide in 2011 following a decade with SA Health and a two-year postdoctoral position at the University of Bristol. Prior to that Cathy was an epidemiologist with SA Health for a decade, where her work focused on population health surveillance and chronic disease epidemiology. Her current research focuses on how we can reduce inequalities in, and improve overall population levels of, child health and development, and also whether we can identify children who are likely to have poor development, for better targeting of family support programs. She has an interest in applying causal epidemiological techniques to these questions and making use of population data from longitudinal cohorts and data linkage studies. She also teaches undergraduate public health and epidemiology.
