Janet HemingwayCBEFRSFMedSciFRCP[3] (born 1957)[1][2] is a British infectious diseases specialist. She is the former Director of Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) and founding Director of Infection Innovation Consortium and Professor of Tropical Medicine at LSTM.[4] She is current President of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. [5]
While serving as Director of LSTM between 2001 and 2019, Hemingway oversaw a period of organisational growth. This included the awarding of Higher Education Institution Status & Degree Awarding powers to LSTM. For her 2012 contributions to the Prevention of Tropical Disease Vectors, she received the Commander of the British Empire (CBE). She assumed the role of founding director of iiCON in 2020. iiCON is a collaborative R&D initiative creating a premier international center for infectious disease R&D in the North West of England.
Hemingway also works on advocacy and resource mobilisation (and was previously chief executive officer) at the Innovative Vector Control Consortium (IVCC) (funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation),[6] and is International Director of the Joint Centre for Infectious Diseases Research, Jizan, Saudi Arabia.[7]
Hemingway has over 30 years of experience working on the biochemistry and molecular biology of specific enzyme systems associated with xenobiotic resistance, most notably the malaria-transmitting mosquito.[10][11][12][13][14]
Hemingway is distinguished as the international authority on insecticide resistance in insect vectors of disease. She was first to report co-amplification of multiple genes on a single amplicon and demonstrate their impact on disease transmission.[3] Her studies on resistance management have transformed the use of insecticide by disease control programmes.[3] Her promotion of evidence-based monitoring and evaluation strategies for insecticide resistance has guided and improved international policy on vector control strategies for Onchocerciasis, Malaria, and other vector borne diseases.[3] Her rigorous scientific approach to resistance analysis has contributed to a greater understanding of resistance, its impact and spread and has minimised its effect in increasing human mortality and morbidity.[3]
