Wildlife Disease Ecologist

Integrating veterinary epidemiology, animal behavior, and spatial ecology to understand pathogen transmission, environmental persistence, and spillover risk

Hi, I'm Nurul

i bring over a decade of experience leading outbreak investigations, one health surveillance, and wildlife disease research in Bangladesh and internationally.

My current work at the University of Wisconsin–Madison focuses on developing mechanistic, movement-informed frameworks for environmentally transmitted pathogens, using wildlife telemetry and behavioral data.

my work reflects a deliberate transition from applied outbreak response toward theory-driven wildlife disease ecology.
