Professor Peter Lloyd-Sherlock

My research mainly focusses on older people in Latin America, Asia and Africa. I am especially interested in health and social care interventions for older people in vulnerable communities.

I have held senior secondments at World Health Organisation and The UK Government Department for International Development, and was a member of the Lancet COVID-19 Commission on Vulnerable Groups.
