Benny is a postdoctoral fellow in the Metcalf lab interested in the evolution and ecology of parasites in human and wildlife hosts – especially in how genetic and mass serology approaches could be used to better understand pathogen dynamics in Madagascar. Benny is joining the Metcalf lab in the summer of 2019 after finishing his PhD in the OEB department at Harvard University (a PhD that focused on malaria in rural, remote communities in Madagascar).
