Biography

Professor Stephanie Topp is a health policy and systems researcher with a background in global public health, political, and social sciences. She holds a PhD in Global Health from the University of Melbourne, an MPhil in Development Studies from Oxford University, an MIPH from the University of Sydney, and a BA(Hons) in Modern History from the University of Sydney.

Her research focuses on the political and power dynamics influencing equitable access to healthcare and health outcomes. Drawing on social science theories and methodologies, she investigates system-strengthening potentials through public health policy adjustments, governance, and health workforce management, particularly in low-resource, remote, and correctional settings. Her work also explores the intersections between cultural health and wellbeing.

Professor Topp's research has been cited in national and international policy documents, including those from the World Health Organization, European Union, USAID, and governments in Australia and Finland. Over the past five years, she has been the chief investigator for competitive grants totaling $3.8 million, funded by bodies such as NHMRC, MRFF, CRC-NA, and Canada's CIHR. She has published extensively in leading journals, including The Lancet Global Health, BMJ Global Health, and Social Science & Medicine.  In recognition of her contributions to research communication, she received the QLD Young Tall Poppy Award in 2019.
