Michael J. Tildesley is professor in infectious disease modelling at the University of Warwick.[1] He is a member of the Scientific Pandemic Influenza Modelling group (SPI-M) of SAGE.[2]
Education
[edit | edit source]Born in Keighley, West Yorkshire, Tildesley went to school in the city of York and studied mathematics at Clare College, Cambridge. He read for his Ph.D. in 2003 with a thesis on Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics under the supervision of Nigel Weiss. He later moved to the University of Warwick and transitioned into the field of infectious disease modeling, a field he has worked in ever since.[3]
Research
[edit | edit source]Tildesly's main area of research is the development of mathematical models to simulate the spread of livestock and zoonotic diseases.[4] He has a particular interest in the targeting of control in the event of an outbreak to minimize the spread of disease.
