Research interests

My interests lie in the application of quantitative tools to infectious disease data to understand of host-pathogen systems and inform disease control. Current areas of interest include:

The role of individual variability (such as superspreading or genetic predisposition) in disease synamics and control
The sources of aggregation in host-parasite systems
The mathematics of diversity measures
Genetic susceptibility and selective breeding for disease control
Game theory and control planning

Current projects and applications in these areas include the transmission and control of E. coli O157 in the cattle reservoir; the role of virulence factors in the epidemiology of non-O157 E. coli; the genetic epidemiology of resistance to sea-lice infection in salmon; the impact of selective breeding on MHC diversity; the identification of sources of aggregation in the sheep-nematode system systems; and the epidemiology and ecology of antimicrobial resistance.
