Ana I. Bento studies how infectious diseases spread through populations using mathematical models, data analysis, and genomic surveillance. Their work spans forecasting outbreaks (such as measles, influenza, and COVID-19) and tracking emerging viruses like Oropouche, dengue, and yellow fever, often combining ecological, spatial, and genetic data. A recurring goal is to build better systems for detecting and anticipating disease outbreaks.
