Academic interests

Christoph Gradmann’s research mainly focuses on the history of infectious disease in modernity (19th ct to present). His point of departure was the cultural history and the history of science of late 19th ct German medical bacteriology. In this context he wrote a biography of the German physician Robert Koch (1843-1910). Recently he has broadened his focus and now investigates what had happened to infectious disease when they seemed to be returning at the end of the 20th century. Keywords are antibiotic resistance, nosocomial infections, emerging infections, antibiotic drug development etc. Currently, he works on the history of global health with special emphasis on the contemporary history of multi drug resistant tuberculosis, on antibiotics resistance in global health and on the history of antibiotic drug development.

Christoph Gradmann has worked on historiographic issues and in particular on the theory and history of biographies a s genre of historical text. He has published papers, has edited biographical dictionaries and written a book about biographies in interwar Germany.
