Biography

I obtained a BSc at the University of Crete in Applied Mathematics before completing an MSc in Biomathematics at the University of Durham, UK. In November 2013 I joined the department of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Cambridge as a Research Assistant in mathematical modelling of infectious diseases.

Research

I am particularly interested in studying the dynamics of infectious diseases in humans. 

My current work focuses on the development and application of mathematical models of NmA transmission and disease to help determine the impact of the initial immunisation campaigns and the optimal use of MenAfriVac in the longer term.
