My research interests lie in developing and analysing mathematical models of pathogen transmission. This includes using statistical methods to estimate the parameters associated with spread, and using stochastic and deterministic models to generate forwards projections. As well as using models for making projections during specfic outbreaks, I am interested in using models to understand outbreak dynamics generally so that more effective public health measures can be planned. I look forward to using these techniques to help understand the dynamics of AMR in the environment, and the potential impacts on local host populations, as part of the UK-India RESPHARM Team.
