He has defended his PhD in October 2015, and he is currently a Post-doc at Epicx-Lab. research activitiesEugenio's main research field is the spread of diseases on time-evolving networks. Specifically, he is developing tools, both analytical and data-driven, to assess and predict how vulnerable a system is to the introduction of a new pathogen, both at the population level, and targeting specific hosts.
He applies his theoretical findings to various contexts of high relevance in Public Health perspective, from the spread of livestock disease among cattle holdings, from human hospital acquired infections. |
