We are a multidisciplinary group dedicated to advancing public health through innovative data science and geospatial research. Our work focuses on: 

Dementia Disparities – We leverage large-scale Medicare data to uncover patterns, disparities, and risk factors in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia, providing insights that can inform policy and improve care for vulnerable populations. 

Mosquito-Borne Diseases – We integrate Earth observation data, citizen science, and advanced modeling techniques to forecast mosquito habitats and disease risk, helping communities better prepare for and respond to vector-borne disease threats.
