Postdoctoral Fellow

WEHI

Lauren is a Postdoctoral Fellow in Infectious Disease Modelling at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research (WEHI). Lauren has a broad range of interests spanning across One Health, human/veterinary/wildlife epidemiology, infectious disease and population dynamics modelling, and statistical analysis. Lauren currently works on projects relating to the control of infectious diseases in the Asia-Pacific region, including the development of diagnostic tools to identify individuals recently infected with Plasmodium vivax. In her previous research, she has addressed questions related to the management of animal populations and infectious diseases, and the welfare of domestic animals. This has included using statistical and mathematical models to assess the effectiveness of free-roaming dog population management, rabies control strategies, canine distemper virus dynamics, African swine fever in domestic pigs, and cetacean ecology and conservation.
