Introduction My research interests are to understand and interrupt the environmental processes affecting gastrointestinal and respiratory disease transmission. Despite historic public health gains through environmental engineering advancements in the last century (think drinking water treatment, sewage remediation, solid waste disposal, and air quality management), morbidity and mortality from infectious diseases remains strikingly high. As such, my research agenda is to advance the understanding of transmission models to reduce global ID burden.
