Summary
I am a PhD Candidate within the Department for Infectious Disease Epidemiology. My research is focused on using mathematical modelling techniques to understand how anti-malarial resistance spreads. I specifically look at malaria prevention interventions in young children and potential strategies to increase the effective life-span of these measures.
I spent most of 2020 working as part of the Imperial College COVID-19 Response Team. In the early stage of the pandemic, I was responsible for collating all information on cases outside of mainline China. This data was used to understand what the symptoms of COVID-19 were, along with the earliest estimates of the case fatality ratio. I also participated in a number of research studies estimating the reproduction number, most notably in Vo' in Italy and also in South Korea.
In 2020 I was awarded the Imperial College award for best graduate teaching assistant. Within the School of Public Health, I assist in delivering postgraduate modules as part of the Public Health, Epidemiology and Health Data Analytics masters programs. I teach courses about mathematical epidemiology, modelling of infectious diseases and mathematics for public health.
