Ofosuhene Okofrobour Apenteng is an Assistant Professor specializing in mathematical epidemiology. His research focuses on developing parameter estimation and identifiability techniques to model disease dynamics, including the estimation of causal impacts of economic interventions. His interests also encompass simulations to study the spread of infectious diseases, particularly in relation to tourists, migrants, and injectable drug users, with a notable emphasis on HIV/AIDS and COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy. Apenteng aims to create innovative modeling approaches and theories that assist in addressing highly focused applied research questions aimed at aiding prevention and control efforts. His work includes developing a surveillance program based on metagenomics to detect antimicrobial resistance in Danish livestock production. He collaborates with national and international authorities, researchers, and stakeholders on various projects, including those funded by HORIZON Europe, focusing on enhancing biosecurity in livestock production and exploring the dynamics of infectious diseases in changing environments. He is also a member of the Infectious Disease Epidemiology & Animal Health Economics (TIPTON) group and is interested in supervising doctoral students in mathematical epidemiology and infectious disease control strategies.
Focuses on clinical, social, and cognitive psychology.
