My research focusses on a range of Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) of medical and veterinary importance, in particular leishmaniasis, Chagas disease and more recently onchocerciasis. Current research objectives include quantitation of heterogeneities in vector-host transmission, development of assays to detect super-spreaders and vector bite exposure, and community-based trials to test novel intervention methods. Working in a diversity of endemic field-based sites alongside international collaborators, the research aims to be translational and to inform mathematical transmission models.
Our research contributes to and benefits from the broad expertise at Warwick and elsewhere including:
