Katharina Ledebur has been a postdoctoral fellow at the Complexity Science Hub since March 2025.

Her research interests include modeling and analyzing the causes and consequences of diseases. She explores the impact of environmental and contextual factors on health, including the effects of climate change on morbidity and mortality, as well as chronic disease dynamics in aging societies. Additionally, she studies infectious disease dynamics and their consequences.

She completed her PhD at the Complexity Science Hub and the Medical University of Vienna in March 2025. Katharina holds a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in biophysics from Humboldt University of Berlin. Prior to joining CSH, she completed her master’s project and thesis, which focused on pattern formation in spatial co-infection systems, at the Robert Koch Institute (Germany) as a member of the Computational Epidemiology group.
