My research focuses on understanding and predicting how life history strategies enable parasites to quickly respond to disease control methods, and what the consequences are for the efficacy of disease control.
I am a postdoc with a background in Ecology, Mycology and Entomology. Currently, I am investigating the importance of biological rhythms for the survival and transmission of malaria parasites.
I am interested in vector-parasite interactions from an evolutionary ecology perspective, asking how the conditions inside vectors affect parasite fitness, and whether parasites can adapt to maximise their survival and transmission.
I am a Darwin Trust funded PhD student investigating the impact of microbial rhythms on the development of malaria parasites and mosquitoes' ability to spread diseases.
