My research uses mathematical models and computer simulation to help identify improved infectious disease prevention and control strategies in both humans and animals. Our work has a significant impact on public health and veterinary health, by strengthening planning and disease control strategies to prevent infectious disease outbreaks.
My ultimate goal is to improve understanding of the complex interplay of factors that impact children’s pain and health to identify best practices for intervention.
My research focuses on the ecology and epidemiology of vector-borne zoonoses. I apply a One Health approach,
working collaboratively at the intersection of human, animal and environmental health.
My research is in the area of nuclear physics, using the atomic nucleus as a laboratory to understand the fundamental forces of nature, the origins of the elements in the Universe, and how simple patterns emerge from complex systems.
