    Dr David Aanensen

    Lecturer in Bioinformatics

    I work as a Bioinformatician and Web manager of http://www.mlst.net within Prof. Brian Spratts group. MLST is used to investigate the evolution and epidemiology of a number of pathogens and non-pathogens and we currently host and develop a number of websites/databases for particular organisms.

    Dr Rebecca F Baggaley

    Research Fellow

    My research involves designing mathematical models to determine the effect of herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) treatment and vaccination on HIV transmission in sub-Saharan Africa at the population level, to determine the public health benefit of HSV-2 control. I am also using models to explore the potential impact of HIV drug scale-up in Africa on drug resistance emergence and transmission.

  • Dr Simon Cauchemez

    Dr Simon Cauchemez

    Snr Lecturer in Statistical Infectious Disease Epi

    I am interested in the development of sound methods for the analysis of epidemic data, with the aim to i) get insights on transmission dynamics, ii) support decision making and iii) optimize control policies. Since the start of the flu A(H1N1) pandemic, I have been involved in a range of analyses aiming at better characterizing the epidemiology of the virus.

    Dr Thomas S Churcher

    Junior Research Fellow

    My research focuses on the use of mathematical models to understand the epidemiology and control of malaria. Of particular interest is how the biology of the parasite will influence the resilience of the parasite to the success of different control interventions. This work spans a number of other parasitic infections, including onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminthiases.

    Professor Christl A Donnelly

    Professor of Statistical Epidemiology

    I combine statistical and biomathematical methods to analyze epidemiological patterns of infectious diseases (SARS, BSE/vCJD, FMD, bovine TB). The aim is improve understanding of (and ability to predict) the effects of different interventions and thereby better inform the design of control strategies. One of my key roles has been the Deputy Chair of the Independent Scientific Group on Cattle TB.
