个人简介
I am currently involved in research projects on visceral leishmaniasis, schistosomiasis, RSV, HIV and UK vaccination policy.
The visceral leishmaniasis research is part of the SPEAK India Consortium to develop quantitative frameworks to guide policy towards elimination and sustaining elimination. A key part of this work is the "operational imperative" - we only do research of immediate and direct use to the elimination effort.
The schistosomiasis and visceral leishmaniasis research is part of the NTD Modelling Consortium.
I have been collaborating with Professor D. James Nokes on the epidemiology of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) for many years, and more recently with the Virus Epidemiology and Control research group in Kilifi, Kenya.
I am involved in various projects to evaluate the impact of PrEP for adolescent girls and young women in sub-Saharan Africa.
It is intriguing that, currently, most models of infectious disease transmission dynamics assume that all hosts are identical, when we know that they are not. For some infections, such as measles, it is probably adequate to consider that everybody is average when predicting the impact of immunisation. However, such models result in policy decisions that have "assuming that everybody is equal" as an unwritten assumption. For other infections, such as HIV, assuming that everybody is average is known to be inadequate; the commonest model structures assume that the population is divided into discrete groups, where everybody within the group is average for that group. But how should the groups be chosen, and how do they interact?
