EQUITY research team.
Michelle Kelly-Irving is director of research at the Inserm, and leads the EQUITY research team. She is specialised in the field of life course epidemiology, specifically her focus is on the mechanisms and processes involved in the production of health inequalities across the life course. She has developed a program of research on health outcomes and health trajectories that are driven by social and psychosocial mechanisms from early life onwards. She is interested in how social and psychosocial processes are measured and can be used in relation to biomarkers and measures of physiological systems using longitudinal data.

She previously worked at the University of Bristol and obtained her PhD in epidemiology from the University of London (Centre for Longitudinal Studies, Institute of education). She studied anthropology at the University of Durham as an undergraduate.
