Current/Recent Research

My current research focuses on the development and analysis of mathematical models for infectious disease dynamics, with particular emphasis on malaria and emerging infectious diseases. I employ deterministic and fractional-order differential equation models to investigate disease transmission, evaluate intervention strategies, and support evidence-based public health decision-making.

My research integrates advanced mathematical techniques, including stability analysis, optimal control theory, sensitivity analysis, bifurcation analysis, and numerical simulation, to examine the effectiveness of interventions such as vaccination, insecticide-treated nets (ITNs), indoor residual spraying (IRS), treatment, public awareness, and vector control. I also utilize real epidemiological data for model calibration and validation to improve the predictive performance and practical applicability of these models.
