Research Interests
Linda J.S. Allen
My research interests are in the general areas of mathematical biology and mathematical epidemiology. I have worked with students and colleagues from the Departments of Mathematics and Statistics, Range, Wildlife, and Fisheries Management, Biological Sciences, Agronomy, Horticulture, and Entomology, from TTU Health Sciences Center and The Institute for Environmental and Human Health. We have written more than sixty papers on the development and analysis of deterministic and stochastic models related to endangered water snakes, plant pathosystems, cholla cacti, insect pests and diseases (measles, chickenpox, chlamydia, rabies, hantavirus, and amphibian diseases). I am actively involved in the training and advising of graduate and undergraduate students and in curriculum development in mathematical biology. In addition, I have served or am serving as advisor for 6 Ph.D. dissertations, 24 M.S. or M.A. theses, and 6 undergraduate research projects.
