معرفی
Dr. Alexander Kirpich is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Population Health Sciences at Georgia State University's School of Public Health. With a Ph.D. in Biostatistics from the University of Florida (2015) and prior postdoctoral experience in infectious disease modeling, he specializes in biostatistical analysis and epidemiological forecasting. Since joining Georgia State in 2019, his work integrates viral genomics, public health surveillance, and computational modeling to address emerging disease threats.
- Ph.D. in Biostatistics, University of Florida (2015)
- Master of Statistics, University of Florida (2011)
- Specialist Degree in Mathematics, Belarusian State University (2006)
His research focuses on infectious disease modeling, including COVID-19, HIV, mpox, and cholera, employing techniques like epidemic forecasting, genomic analysis, and statistical modeling. He also develops computational tools (e.g., StatModPredict) for public health applications and contributes to interdisciplinary projects on food security, smoking cessation, and pediatric health outcomes.
Dr. Kirpich's recent work demonstrates trends in
- Integrating internet search data with traditional epidemiological models
- Applying machine learning to genomic datasets
- Developing agent-based stochastic models for disease transmission
- Quantifying excess mortality in politically constrained settings
