Sonia Chowdhury
@soniachowdhury
I am a mathematical biologist specializing in infectious disease modeling and computational disease dynamics.
What I'm looking for
I am a mathematical biologist with a Ph.D. and postdoctoral research experience, focused on applying quantitative methods to biological problems. My training emphasizes rigorous analysis of dynamical systems and differential-equation models.
My research centers on mathematical and immunological modeling of infectious diseases, including HIV and HPV, with work on CTL response, drug-therapy combinations, impulsive control, and vaccination strategies. I apply differential equations and dynamical-systems techniques to study treatment and prevention dynamics.
I have published multiple peer-reviewed articles and book chapters and have presented my work at international conferences; I was awarded second prize for Best Student Presentation (Mathematics) at India Biodiversity Meet (2013). My scholarship demonstrates consistent contributions to biomathematics and infectious-disease modeling.
I am collaborative, communication-focused, and committed to translating mathematical insight into public-health impact. I seek roles that allow me to continue research, mentor students, and work across disciplines to develop actionable disease-control strategies.
