Interests
My research interest and current work focus on infectious disease modeling, particularly airborne, waterborne, vector-borne, and eco-epidemiological diseases. Additionally, I study models of within-host dynamics of different pathogens. My approach involves using deterministic, fractional, and stochastic differential equations to analyze and model disease dynamics.
