Bio

I am a re search fellow in infectious disease modelling at L ondon School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. I currently work with Professor Mark Jit and Dr Kaja Abbas on measles vaccine modelling in low and middle income settings. Prior to this, I focused on the epidemiology and control strategies of tuberculosis (TB), bot h in Taiwan and at the global level, at Imperial College London. I also participated research on coronavirus disease 2019, in particular estimating the excess TB burden relating to health service disruption s during a lockdown
