Risk Mapping & Disease Surveillance
Risk Mapping & Disease Surveillance
This work asks where schistosomiasis transmission systems and transmission-relevant organisms are likely to occur, and where surveillance can be most informative. These projects operate at broad spatial scales, from landscapes to national surveillance priorities.
Schistosomiasis and snail host modeling
Using host ecology, spatial models, and uncertainty analysis to improve predictions of schistosomiasis risk and guide survey design.
