Research Interests: 

Current projects involve researchers in the UA Department of Geography and Engineering to investigate spatial uncertainty and methods to optimally visualize risk. Through collaborations at the CDC, she is working to develop a model to test trapping effectiveness for Aedes aegypti, the primary dengue vector. This latter project involves both experiments to test vector flight ranges as we as mathematical models of vector abundance and involves experts in the UA Math and Entomology departments. Finally, she is continuing to quantify the association between climate change and health.
