Summary
I am a first-year PhD student at the Mathematics for Real-World Systems Centre for Doctoral Training (MathSys II CDT). My proposed research topic is on H5N1 avian influenza epidemiology, supervised by Professor Mike Tildesley and Dr Christopher Davis. Currently, I am working on developing a model that captures the within-flock infection dynamics in a mixed-species flock.
