Personal profile
Biography
I am a public health researcher with a specific interest and experience in global environmental health and infectious disease epidemiology. My research is focused on health risk assessment of climate change and identification/designing of sustainable adaptational strategies to protect human health from the impacts of climate change. I am also interested in diagnosis, distribution and transmission of microbial pathogens of clinical importance and understanding the role of environmental factors in disease transmission. I use statistical, qualitative and molecular research techniques to understand environmental, biological and social determinants of human health and propose suitable interventional strategies.
