Aurpit Patnaik

I am a State Lead at PATH, a global health organization that accelerates health equity and innovation in low- and middle-income countries. With over 15 years of experience in epidemiology and public health, I have a strong track record of leading and managing impactful projects and initiatives in India, especially in Uttar Pradesh, the most populous state in the country. I lead a team of public health experts each leading their projects, I provide oversight to project implementation, and manage senior level engagements at the state level. My core competencies include project management, leadership, communication, and collaboration. I oversee the strategic planning, implementation, and evaluation of programs in infectious diseases, neglected tropical diseases, Immunization, Surveillance, health system strengthening, and nutrition, working with multiple stakeholders and partners. I also leverage my expertise in healthcare information technology to design and deploy innovative solutions for data collection, analysis, and dissemination. I am passionate about advancing the mission of PATH and contributing to a diverse and dynamic team that shares my vision and values.
