My research is on epidemic transmission models for nowcasting and forecasting national infectious disease outbreaks. Primarily my current work is on extending SARS-CoV-2 real-time transmission models used between 2020-2023 to prepare for how best to use epidemic models in future outbreaks.

I use epidemiological and statistical modelling to draw unbiased insights on the pandemic from the ONS Coronavirus Infection Survey.
My thesis focuses on estimating incidence in the population from this dataset. My current and largest project is to estimate the duration of PCR positivity because this parameter is extremely important to the overall goal.
