Mirko Ancillotti

Researcher in bioethics and public health, focusing on antimicrobial resistance, One Health, patient preferences, and ethics of AI-supported health & emerging health technologies.

Mirko Ancillotti is an associate professor of bioethics. His research combines ethics and social sciences approaches to study questions at the intersection of individual behaviour, collective responsibility and emerging health technologies. A central part of his work concerns antimicrobial resistance, including public perceptions of antibiotics, patient and public preferences, consumer behaviour, One Health approaches, and ethical questions about sustainable access to effective antibiotics. His research also addresses ethical and public-health aspects of AI-supported healthcare and digital health technologies. Across these areas, he is particularly interested in how ethical analysis, empirical methods and stakeholder perspectives can inform responsible health policy and practice.

Mirko Ancillotti has a background in philosophy. In 2021, he earned his PhD in medical sciences from Uppsala University with a project on antibiotic resistance and the role of individual responsibility and behaviour.
