Associate Professor Annika Antonsson
Adjunct Associate Professor
PA Southside Clinical Unit
Senior Research Fellow
School of Public Health
Annika is involved in a longitudinal study on oral HPV infection among Indigenous South Australians and oropharyngeal cancers. More than 1,000 Indigenous people from across South Australia—including Adelaide, Mount Gambier, Coober Pedy, Ceduna, Whyalla, Port Lincoln, Port Pirie and the Riverland— have been recruited for this ongoing study, which started in 2019.
Annika is also working on CanCo which is a First Nations-led Prospective Cancer Cohort study (https://public-health.uq.edu.au/project/canco-prospective-first-nations-cancer-cohort ). CanCo is looking into cancer care needs and experiences of First Nations peoples diagnosed with cancer, and their caregivers.”
Researcher biography
Associate Professor Annika Antonsson is a virologist with epidemiological training. Viruses can cause cancer, and Annika's research has been focused on human papillomavirus (HPV) and its role in different types of cancer. Her main research areas are oral HPV infections in different populations and HPV in throat cancer (oropharyngeal cancer), with her most recent study investigating if the current HPV vaccine is protecting against the HPV types that are causing throat cancer.
