Citation | Oliver Pybus is an evolutionary biologist who is internationally renowned for his leadership in the field of Phylodynamics. He invented key tools for inferring population dynamics from gene sequences and demonstrated first that important epidemiological parameters can be estimated from pathogen genomes. He continues to develop phylodynamic theory and has extended its application to immunology, cell biology and ecology. He has led large, international collaborations that use genetic data to reveal the transmission of past and current epidemics. His studies have repeatedly provided conceptual and empirical insights into pathogen dynamics that were unavailable from the analysis of traditional epidemiological data. |
