Dr. Bâtie is a postdoctoral fellow at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and in the Department of Environmental Health and Engineering at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Her current research focuses on the pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response agreement currently being negotiated by WHO Member States. She also has expertise in antimicrobial resistance, participatory epidemiology, and One Health.
Prior to starting her postdoctoral work, Dr. Bâtie conducted research for her PhD, within the European project ROADMAP, with the French agricultural research and international cooperation organization (CIRAD), focused on antimicrobial resistance in Vietnam. The aim was to co-develop, with relevant key players, strategies to reduce antibiotics usage in chicken production in Vietnam. During this research, she mobilized transdisciplinary, participatory, and systemic approaches to study the change of practice, engaging with multiple participants from different levels and sectors. Her PhD research was a continuation of work conducted during an internship in Madagascar on the perception of antimicrobial usage in livestock production. After her doctorate, she worked in the operational part of the PREZODE initiative (Preventing ZOonotic Disease Emergence) with CIRAD.
Dr. Bâtie holds a PhD in health ecology and epidemiology from the University of Montpellier in France (2023), a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the Veterinary School of Toulouse (2018), and a master’s degree in integrated zoonosis management of tropical diseases from Paul Sabatier University of Toulouse (2018).
