BIO

I'm a data scientist in the ithree institute with an interest in understanding the evolutionary processes that drive the evolution of pathogens.I develop phylogenetic algorithms and software to investigate natural selection, evolutionary rates, and the geographic dispersal of viruses such as influenza virus and HIV. My research is part of a bigger picture looking at ways to better manage global issues such as antimicrobial resistance and infectious disease outbreaks.
