Current research: 

My research focuses on parasite epidemiology and the prevention and control of parasitic disease worldwide. I have been a researcher in global health and infectious (parasite) disease epidemiology for over 25 years and have conducted population-based primary epidemiological field research both in Canada and abroad. My Canadian-based research has focused primarily on infections in child and educator populations in the daycare setting and imported and endemic parasite infections in at-risk populations (eg. immigrants, travelers). My global health research activities centre mainly on:

  • Deworming control programs in high risk population subgroups (eg. preschool-age children, school-age children and pregnant women)
  • Interdisciplinary approaches to the prevention and control of endemic infectious and parasitic diseases
  • The interrelationship between infection and (mal)nutrition in child populations and women of reproductive age (including pregnant women) and
  • Reducing health inequities in communities of extreme poverty in endemic areas of low-and-middle-income countries
