I joined LSHTM in 2023 as a Research Degree student. Prior to this I worked at the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) for one year in their Respiratory Viruses and Legionella (RVL) group. I have a BSc in Medical Microbiology from the University of Bristol and completed my MPhil in Population Health Sciences at the University of Cambridge.

Research

My PhD is funded by the Medical Research Council London Intercollegiate Doctoral (MRC LID) Training Partnership. My research focuses on modelling the disorganised ecology of post-pandemic respiratory virus transmission.
I am interested in the way infectious diseases, particularly respiratory viruses, circulate in our world. Part of my research interest is examining the drivers of respiratory virus transmission, whether they be intrinsic to the virus or driven by population behaviours.
