My work focuses on the development of sustainable infectious disease control in animals in resource-limited areas in support of food and nutrition security, income generation, wildlife conservation and public health. I hold honorary affiliations with the Australian National University, the Royal Veterinary College in London and Tufts University in Boston and am a Senior Consulting Fellow with the Chatham House Global Health Programme. I am also a Commissioner with the Lancet-PPATS Commission on Prevention of Viral Spillover: reducing the risk of pandemics through primary prevention.
