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.

Currently, my research at the University of Wisconsin–Madison focuses on developing mechanistic frameworks for environmentally transmitted pathogens by integrating wildlife telemetry and behavioral data.

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