Ph.D. Candidate in Ecology of Infectious Diseases, University of Kansas
My name is Daniel Romero-Alvarez. I am originally from Ecuador and I am in my final year of the PhD in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Kansas. I have a degree as a doctor in medicine but I changed subjects to explore how ecological determinantes might be driving outbreaks and epidemics. I publish academic papers on this subject on different disease systems including anthrax, malaria, and currently leprosy. My work can be reviewed in my personal website: www.romerostories.com
