Professor Gemma Carey was the Director of CSI UNSW, and National Research Director for the CSI network. As of mid 2024, she is returning from a 3 year leave of absence, from vaccine induced long covid.��

Professor Gemma Carey comes from a family that has shifted from deprivation and limited education, to fully tertiary educated in two generations. Since turning 30, she has lived with varying levels of physical disability, when her immune system attacked her nervous system. She believes that working to create equitable living conditions and opportunities is a fundamental responsibility of communities and governments. These beliefs underpin her work as the at the Centre for Social Impact UNSW, where she leads a multi-disciplinary team of researchers and educators committed to addressing inequality. She works with governments and non-government organisations to identify and change structures and processes that impact inequality. At the moment, her research is primarily focused on the implementation of the National Disability Insurance Scheme.

Gemma has published 4 books and over 100 journal articles on different aspects of policy and health. She has a PhD in social policy and population health, and a Masters of Medical Science (research masters in Public Health and Anthropology), and a Bachelor of Health Sciences (1st Class Hons).
