Associate Professor Michael Livingston joined the NDRI Melbourne office in 2021. He is one of Australia's leading alcohol policy researchers, with a significant national profile and a long history of success in obtaining major grants. He has published over 200 papers across a range of topics, focussing largely on evaluating the impacts of alcohol policy changes at the population level, ensuring data on alcohol consumption and related harms are as robust as possible and trying to unpack the drivers of trends in population drinking, particularly among young people. He has received a series of major awards, incluing an NHMCR Research Excellence Award in 2016. Livingston was a member of the NHMRC's Alcohol Working Committee, tasked with revising the national low risk drinking guidelines (launched in 2020), and is on the AIHW's Technical Advisory Group for the National Drug Strategy Household Survey.
