Research and Policy Fellow, The George Institute for Global Health
Alice Witt is a Research and Policy Fellow based in the UK office. She works on the MESSAGE (Medical Science Sex and Gender Equity) project, a policy initiative to improve how biomedical, health and care research accounts for sex and gender. Through this work, she engages with stakeholders across the UK research sector to co-design key policy documents and support research funders to implement new sex and gender policies. The long-term goal of this work is to embed proper accounting of sex and gender dimensions as the norm for all research practice, thereby addressing critical sex and gender gaps in the evidence base and improving health outcomes for all people. Alice holds an MA in Social Anthropology of Development from SOAS, University of London and a BA in Modern Languages from the University of Oxford.
