Short Bio

Veterinary epidemiologist (DVM, MSc, PhD). I have 15 years of experience in international organisations (WOAH, FAO) related to disease surveillance, disease reporting, early warning, epidemic intelligence, data integration, epi analysis of animal health data and health information systems, data management and capacity building.

I am particularly interested in the One Health approach in analysing the dynamics of transboundary animal diseases and informing decision-makers for the adoption of international surveillance and control policies, concerning production animals, companion animals, wildlife and international trade in animals and animal products.
