One Health Fellow of Massey University & Comm Secretary at One Health Bangladesh

I’m currently a Graduate Research Assistant at The Turner Lab, University of Wisconsin-Madison, delving into the link between white-tailed deer behavior and Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) through video analysis. Prior to this, I served as a Technical Advisor at GHD|EMPHNET, applying my 8+ years of experience in outbreak investigation and One Health surveillance to combat emerging and zoonotic diseases. My passion lies in protecting wildlife and promoting global health security. This led me to research bats and Nipah encephalitis in Bangladesh. I also hold a Master’s in biosecurity & wildlife Health from Massey University under a 2-year One Health Fellowship program.
