I am a PhD Candidate researching infectious disease management in biodiverse urban areas. My work emphasises ecologically-based mitigation strategies that recognise the interconnectedness between animal, human, and environmental wellbeing, known as the One Health framework. I focus on novel interventions that combine qualitative and quantitative research techniques, and am currently exploring topics of rodent population management and cat-dependent diseases like toxoplasmosis.

About the BEAKER STREET ROVING SCIENTIST PROGRAM
Each August, hundreds of Roving Scientists descend upon Hobart, filling up pubs and chatting to strangers as part of Beaker Street Festival. Discover a new world down the lens of microscope, and joining the least-boring bar conversations you’ve ever heard and these free (the chats – not the drinks) events.
For Scientists, Beaker Street’s Roving Scientist Program offers an excellent outreach, professional development, and networking opportunity. It’s the nerdiest and funnest way to share your research with the public, expand your network, and be inspired by leaders in all sectors of science and science communication.
