We develop and apply epidemiological and economic models to inform better public health decisions around resource allocations to maximise the health of populations.

Biostatistics is the application of statistics to a wide range of topics including public health research.

Current Projects

• Decision science using Optima
  Research and applications across disease areas to improve allocative efficiency.
• Scenario analysis for programmatic tuberculosis control in Western Province, Papua New Guinea
  Construction of a mathematical model to simulate the TB epidemic in Western Province of PNG, which will be used to inform programmatic responses.
• TB-MAC Multi-modelling Exercise
  TB-MAC is an international consortium of modellers, coordinated through the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

Past Projects

• Accelerating ART initiation among Infants (AAMI Study)
  This project will trial the POC VISITECT® CD4 test and POC LYNX HIV p24 early infant diagnostic test.
• Construction of a mathematical model for TB transmission
  Constructing a model for responses to TB in high burden countries of the Asia-Pacific.
