Research interests
My research interests are in the area of water and health. I work at the intersection of environmental engineering, public health, ecology and sustainable development to help solve water-related human and ecosystem health problems through an "ecohealth" approach. My current areas of activity include:
- Waterborne disease epidemiology: occurrence and health effects of viruses in drinking water
- Risk modeling
- Analytical methods for molecular epidemiology and the study of microbial communities in environmental matrices
- Human and zoonotic pathogens in agricultural systems
- Appropriate drinking water and sanitation technologies for low-tech contexts
- Dissemination of technological innovations
