She received her academic training from Johns Hopkins University, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, University of Hong Kong (HKU), The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
Research and experience
Her research interests include climate change and health, health and environmental co-benefits, disaster and humanitarian medicine, global and planetary health, violence and injury epidemiology, healthy settings, health needs and programme impact evaluation, evidence-based medical and public health interventions in resource deficit settings.
She has been involved in professional technical public health specialist training programmes of the Hong Kong SAR Government (2011–present), Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC) (2013–2015) and the Health Emergency Response Office of China’s National Health and Family Planning Commission (2013–2015). In addition, through the CCOUC China Ethnic Minority Health Project (EMHP) she established in 2009, her team has outreached almost 6,600 households in 23 remote, disaster-prone, resource-deficit rural settings in China and trained nearly 400 students and scholars from CUHK, HKU, Oxford University and Harvard University. Professor Chan has also established research and training projects in Bhutan and Nepal. Moreover, the international online course "Public Health Principles in Disaster and Medical Humanitarian Response" developed by her team to examine the application of public health principles in planning and responding to disaster and humanitarian crises has almost 3,600 students enrolled from six continents since its launch in May 2014. Another international online course "Climate Change and Health" by her team was launched in November 2015.
Emily Chan is also a Co-chairperson of World Health Organization Thematic Platform for Health Emergency & Disaster Risk Management Research Group (WHO H-EDRM Research Group), a member of the Asia Science Technology and Academia Advisory Group of the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR ASTAAG) and serves in various technical consultation capacities for World Health Organization (WHO). She has extensive experience in serving as frontline emergency relief practitioner in the mid-1990s that spans across 20 countries.
Awards and recognition
Emily Chan was awarded the 2007 Nobuo Maeda International Research Award of the American Public Health Association and has published more than 200 international peer-reviewed academic/technical/conference articles and seven of these appeared in The Lancet and Bulletin of the World Health Organization. Her community public health resilience and disaster-health related papers have been used as policy references within the WHO and the Health Emergency Response Office of China’s National Health and Family Planning Commission. She has also received the National Geographic Chinese Explorer Award from the National Geographic Magazine.
