We investigate interactions among hosts, pathogens, and the environment to formulate public health strategies in partnership with local officials and health authorities.

We are examining morphological and molecular signatures that can be developed as non-invasive biomarkers for detecting diseases in the early stages, predicting treatment response, and prognosticating disease outcomes. 

We provide baseline and updated epidemiological data on neglected tropical diseases and rare genetic disorders to inform health program managers and policy makers.
