About Me

I am a Marie Curie fellow working at Imperial College London with Christophe Fraser. My interests are focused around the topic of evolutionary biology, epidemiology, and infectious diseases. By using various theoretical tools (mathematical modelling, phylogenetic analysis, statistical inference) I examine how interactions between pathogens and the immune system affect the spread of pathogens in host populations. Viewing such interactions in the context of the evolutionary process is fundamental for a better understanding of how pathogens adapt to our populations, and what can be done to minimise the degree of their adaptation. My research is currently funded by the European Union and the Swiss National Science Foundation.
