About
Dr. Penny Hancock is an Assistant Professor in Biostatistics/Epidemiology at Imperial College London's School of Public Health (Faculty of Medicine). She is affiliated with the MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis. Her work focuses on mathematical modeling of mosquito populations and disease control strategies, including genetically engineered transgenes in malaria-transmitting Anopheles gambiae and Wolbachia in dengue-transmitting Aedes aegypti. She combines spatial statistics and machine learning to study insecticide resistance in African malaria vectors.
- Education: Doctoral training at Australian National University
Research interests include:
- Mosquito population dynamics
- Genetic control strategies for disease vectors
- Insecticide resistance mapping
- Ecological impacts on disease transmission
No specific articles or grants are listed in the text, but her work emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches to global health challenges. She collaborates on projects like Target Malaria and has conducted field cage experiments for Wolbachia spread modeling.
