As many people with suicidal thoughts are reluctant to seek help from face-to-face services, we hope that web-based and phone-based prevention efforts will lower thresholds for help-seeking, as well as act as complementary care to regular mental health treatment programs.

Understanding CDAD requires considering the effects of the interaction of C. difficile, its toxins, the human immune system, gut flora and antibiotics. Mathematical modelling of these factors can be used to confirm, support or generate new hypotheses.

Mathematical modelling of diseases at low prevalence, such as Lymphatic Filariasis, where modelling and disease surveillance is needed to support and maintain disease elimination.
Respiratory pathogens are a significant cause of illness and hospitalisation in young children.This project is suitable for students with a strong maths background, and will use mathematical models to improve disease predictions, capture seasonality, and assess the potential impact of emerging vaccines and treatments.
This project investigates simulations and models to provide insights into infectious disease trends, quantify likely benefits of public health interventions, and support risk assessment for emerging infectious diseases.
The study aims to survey a large number of people, ensuring there is national representation to gain a highly detailed understanding of the relationship between culture and wellbeing.
