Summary
I am a mathematical modeller at the Jameel Institute, based in the Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology. My background is in applied and computational mathematics, having obtained PhD and MSc degrees from Imperial College London and HDip and BA degrees from University College Dublin.
My research is at the intersection of infectious disease epidemiology and health economics, specifically the development and application of integrated epidemiological-economic models, which allow for the analysis of both health and economic costs of disease outbreaks.
Current topics of interest include vaccine modelling, the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on lower- and middle-income countries, epidemic mitigation strategies and pandemic preparedness.
