Dr Nicky McCreesh

Associate Professor

Jump to: Affiliations Teaching Research Publications

I am interested in the mathematical modelling of tuberculosis, and in understanding the role of heterogeneity (e.g. in contact patterns, infectiousness, natural history, and health seeking behaviour) in the transmission and control of TB. Much of my work focuses on modelling active case finding, with a particular interest in screening methods (chest x-ray using CAD vs symptoms).

I also work on the calibration and analysis of complex models, and was involved in the development of the history matching and model emulation R package hmer

 

I am one of the Department Research Degree Coordinators in the Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology.
