My research focuses on the epidemiology of infectious diseases of wildlife and incorporates molecular approaches to determine origin, persistence and spread of diseases of animal and public health concern. Integral to many projects is the custom development of molecular methods that address the high levels of host and pathogen diversity in sub-Saharan Africa and the generation of baseline data that facilitate formulation of regionally-relevant, conservation-cognisant disease control policies. Current research focusses on (i) the ecology and diversity of a broad range of viral and bacterial, vector-borne and zoonotic diseases, and (ii) on the molecular taxonomy and population genetics of diverse African fauna.
