Research area
I am a mathematical and computational biologist with a broad interest in evolutionary biology. I have worked on a diverse array of topics, including social evolution, host-pathogen (co)-evolution, and evolutionary conflict. Recently, my research focus has been on the evolution of infectious diseases. Pathogens adapt rapidly to drugs and vaccines and a better understanding of the evolutionary epidemiology of infectious diseases raises many theoretical challenges and has important public health applications.
