Research project

Changing landscapes for the health of the poor: urbanization and the population dynamics of climate-sensitive diseases

Project summary

Urbanization and climate changes are two major transformations of the planet with profound impacts on infectious diseases, especially water-borne and vector-borne infections. In turn, a fundamental component of urbanization and development concerns land-use changes. I am interested in the intersection of these major aspects of a rapidly changing planet from a dynamical perspective on poverty and human health
