I'm an infectious disease researcher interested in real-time analysis, forecasting, semi-mechanistic modelling, and open-source tool development.
- Working @Epiforecasts (part of theLondon School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine);
- ⭐ Contributing to theepinowcast community developing tools and methods for current surveillance of infectious disease and preparing for future outbreaks;
- 🧻 Currently working on:
- 🏢 2024-: Assistant professor in real-time modelling of infectious disease w/Sebastian Funk at theLondon School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
- 🏢 2023-2025: Contractor supporting theUS CDC Centre for Forecast and Outbreak Analytics
- 🏢 2020-2023: Postdoc in real-time modelling of infectious disease w/Sebastian Funk at theLondon School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
- 🏢 2017-2019: Data Scientist atFunding Circle
- 📜 2016-2019:PhD at theUniversity of Bristol on modelling the use of the BCG vaccine in the UK
- ⚙️ I use daily:
R
,julia
,stan
- 🏗️ I like to perform analysis using novel models on interesting data and generalise those approaches into software 📦s
- 🌍 I'm mostly active within theepinowcast community
- 🌱 Learning all aboutJulia andTuring.jl - currently wondering why in the world you would use callables.
