- PhD Student
Area of interest: Statistical Modelling, Malnutrition and Anaemia
Tony has a background in mathematics and statistical modelling. For his PhD, he will use demographic and health survey data to investigate the concurrence of malnutrition, malaria and anaemia among children under five years in Lesotho, Namibia and Swaziland. He intends his research to lead to both predictive and responsive improvements.
