Profile

I joined the Population Health division of the School of Medicine and Population Health in March 2024 as a Research Associate in infectious disease modelling. After completing a PhD in infectious disease modelling (spatial and mathematical), I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the School of Health and Related Research (SCHARR) at the University of 91Ö±²¥. My work focused on transmission modelling, applying mathematical models and inference frameworks to interpret the results of randomised community trials of joint TB and HIV interventions. I then moved to Imperial College London, where I worked on spatiotemporal modelling of HIV at granular spatial scales. My research integrates statistical, spatial, mathematical, and epidemiological analysis to understand the burden and distribution of infectious diseases, and cost-effectiveness analysis to evaluate the impact of public health interventions.
