His research centers on mathematical and computational modeling of infectious disease dynamics and population behavior, with emphasis on how individual risk-response decisions during epidemics form complex adaptive systems. This work provides critical insights for epidemic control strategies in heterogeneous communities.
As former co-director and five-year mentor of Arizona State University's Mathematical and Theoretical Biology Institute (MTBI), he has guided numerous undergraduate researchers from Latin America and the USA, demonstrating strong commitment to mentoring emerging scientists.
Based at UVA's Biocomplexity Institute in Charlottesville, he leverages institutional resources for cross-disciplinary collaboration on biological and social complexity.
