The CVPD Team
Meet the CVPD Director
Shelly Bolotin is an Associate Professor at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health and the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology, and a Scientist at Public health Ontario.
Her research program utilizes a multi-disciplinary approach to evaluate whether our population is adequately protected from vaccine-preventable diseases. Applying a public health lens, Prof. Bolotin’s studies combine epidemiological and microbiological methods to answer questions related to population immunity and vaccine effectiveness, and determine our future risk for outbreaks or epidemics.
Bolotin received a BSc in Microbiology and Immunology from McGill University, an MSc and PhD in microbiology at the University of Toronto, and an MSc in Public Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
