Background
| Dr. Luther Mann is a postdoc at CRID under the Vaccine Impact Modelling Consortium (VIMC). He is working on mathematical modelling to address questions for optimal usage of some control tools (LLINs, IRS, Larvicides) against mosquitoes within environmental shifts. |
He obtained his doctorate in 2020 at the University of Yaounde 1 in Cameroon where he worked on Mathematical modelling of the spatial distribution of disease vectors, which aimed to provide a mathematical and modeling framework in order to improve the understanding of the spatial distribution of anopheles mosquito. He was a postdoc at the Infectious Diseases and Vectors: Ecology, Genetics, Evolution and Control (MIVEGEC) of Institute of Research fo rDevelopment (IRD) in Senegal, under the ANR project on control strategies and evolutionary adaptation to antimicrobial (QUASAR). His research interests encompass Dynamical Systems in population dynamics and mathematical biology. His research works aims to provide valuable insights for public health decision-makers for the effective and optimal management of intervention measures against infectious diseases.
Research:
- Areas of interest:
Mathematical modelling of infectious diseases like HIV, Malaria, Tuberculosis, Ebola Virus, etc..
Mathematical ecology of disease vectors (Anopheles, Culex, Aedes)
Evolutionary dynamics of antimicrobial resistance
- Research – an overview of your research areas(s)
Research in this area is focused on the local and global stability analysis, detection of possible bifurcation scenario, optimal control of interventions measures and, analysis of the effects of environmental, demographic and ecological factors for the ordinary as well as partial differential equation models. Also the spatio-temporal distribution is studied for the models of interacting populations dispersing over two dimensional landscape. |
