Infectious diseases present a tremendous threat to human society because they kill more than 10 million people each year. To understand and contain infectious disease epidemics, we need to model the evolution and the spread of infectious pathogens through time. My research program aims to utilize stochastic modeling for this important task. In particular, I will investigate theory and methods for studying evolutionary and epidemiological processes using stochastic models and build software for analyzing infectious disease epidemics.

传染病对人类社会构成巨大威胁，因为它们每年夺去1000多万人的生命。为了了解和控制传染病的流行，我们需要对传染性病原体的进化和传播进行建模。我的研究计划旨在利用随机建模来完成这一重要任务。特别是，我将研究使用随机模型研究进化和流行病学过程的理论和方法，并构建分析传染病流行的软件。
