Matthew Wascher works at the intersection of probability theory and statistics, with applications to infectious disease dynamics and evolutionary biology. His work includes developing methods to estimate how diseases spread within populations using repeated testing data, studying mathematical models of infection persistence on networks, and analyzing statistical methods for reconstructing evolutionary (species) trees from genetic data. He has also contributed to interdisciplinary collaborations involving animal physiology and biomechanics.
Publication output has grown over the past decade, rising from occasional papers in 2018-2019 to a peak of 8 in 2022, followed by a slight decline through 2024, averaging just under 3 papers per year over the last five years.
