Research interests
- Evolutionary dynamics and phylogeography of RNA viruses.
- Linking the evolutionary dynamics of viruses to the epidemiological dynamics of disease outbreaks and endemic viral transmission; exploring how host immunity, transmission patterns and epidemic dynamics affect pathogen phylogenies at host and population levels.
- Antibody-dependent enhancement and cross-immunity in dengue & their effects on intra- and inter-serotype dynamics.
- Pathogen evolution under imperfect vaccination.
