Reader in Statistics and Machine Learning for Public Good

I develop bespoke statistical methods for public good. My group and I are particularly interested in novel Bayesian methods that harness information in viral deep sequence data, mobile phone mobility data, and time-resolved patient data to characterise the spread of infectious diseases, and to guide public health interventions.
