I joined LSHTM in April 2015. I am an infectious disease modeller, and a former director of CMMID. I work a 3-day week.
My overall interest is the transmission dynamics of infectious disease, and I have published on many different pathogens and hosts - see [Google] or [ORCID] or [ResearcherID] for full lists. I am currently a member of the Neglected Tropical Disease (NTD) modelling consortium.
I have been on an expert group in the Infected Blood Inquiry. From 2017-2023 I was chair of SPI-M (the pandemic preparedness committee in UK Department of Health), and 2020-2022 I chaired the SPI-M-O modelling subgroup of SAGE which provided evidence to the UK COVID-19 response.
