Hyder received his MD from Aga Khan University in Pakistan in 1990.[1] Subsequently, Hyder moved to Johns Hopkins University and earned his MPH in 1993 and his PhD in 1998,[1] where Timothy D. Baker, a founding leader of international health, was one of his mentors.[2]

Career

Under Hyder's leadership as Director of Johns Hopkins' International Injury Research Unit (JH-IIRU) in 2010, the JH-IIRU received the status designation of World Health Organization Collaborating Center for Injuries, Violence and Accident Prevention.[3] It was only the third collaborating center in the United States to focus on injury prevention at the time.[4] In 2012, Hyder was promoted to full professor in the Department of International Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.[4] While at Johns Hopkins, Hyder was the Associate Chair in the Department of International Health at Johns Hopkins University, Associate Director of Global Programs at the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics, and the Director of the International Injury Research Unit, which is a World Health Organization Collaborating Center for Injuries, Violence and Accident Prevention.[5] He was also the Program Director of Health Systems at Johns Hopkins.[6] While at Johns Hopkins, Hyder also served as Co-Director of the International Research Ethics training Program at the Bloomberg School of Public Health.[5]

Hyder was made a commissioner of The Lancet NCDI Poverty Commission formed in January 2016.[7]

In 2018, Hyder was recruited to join the Milken Institute School of Public Health as the Senior Associate Dean for Research and Professor of Global Health.[8][9]

Hyder has served as a consultant to a number of organizations, including the World Health Organization and the World Bank, and is known for his work on burden of disease and injury measures, for developing the Healthy Life Years indicator, and building on the health systems approach to injury prevention and control in developing countries.[10] Hyder was a contributing author to three chapters of Disease Control Priorities, Road Traffic Injuries,[11] Non-Transport Unintentional Injury,[12] and Injury Prevention and Environmental Health: Key Messages from Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition.[13]

Research

Hyder has co-authored more than 300 peer-reviewed scientific publications and numerous reports[9] for more than 20 years on issues related to health systems development, equity, and ethics in low- and middle-income countries of Africa and Asia.[5] Hyder's work has focused on understanding and improving the training of African and Asian health professionals in ethics.[5][14]

Hyder is an outspoken advocate for road safety and has stated, "accepting our lack of progress is the first step to developing a strong and sustainable set of actions for changing the status quo on global road safety."[15] He has also previously urged research funders to ethically design grants programs for global health research, arguing incentives should be created for applicants to focus their research on marginalized communities.[16]
