I am an Assistant Professor in Disease Modelling in the Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology of the Faculty of Epidemiology and Population Health at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. I am affiliated with the Modelling and Economic Evaluation of Vaccines Group, Centre for the Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases, Vaccine Centre, and the Centre for Health Economics in London.

My research focus is vaccine impact modelling at the interface of infectious disease epidemiology and health economics. I welcome collaborations in related research projects to improve health policy and practice, and you are welcome to contact me.
