Hi there 👋

I'm an infectious disease researcher interested in real-time analysis, forecasting, semi-mechanistic modelling, and open source tool development. More on my research interests here.

BIO
  • 🏢 I'm currently working with CDC Centre for Forecast and Outbreak Analytics and at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
  • 🏢 2020-2023: Postdoc in real-time modelling of infectious disease w/ Sebastian Funk at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
  • 🏢 2017-2019: Data Scientist at Funding Circle
  • 📜 2016-2019: PhD at the University of Bristol on modelling the use of the BCG vaccine in the UK
  • ⚙️ I use daily: R, stan
  • 🏗️ I like to perform analysis using novel models on interesting data and generalise those approaches into software 📦s
  • 🌍 I'm mostly active within the epinowcast community
  • 🌱 (Very slowly) Learning all about Julia and Turing.jl
  • 📘 Reading: Design Patterns
  • 💬 Ping me about statistical modelling of infectious diseases, real-time analysis of infectious diseases, estimating transmission dynamics in real-time, and team science opportunities
