Arnaud Rault

01/04/2013 - 30/09/2014

INRA, Oniris, BioEpAR (MODEC), Nantes

Now working as part as WP3 at BioEpAR.

Junior economist (post-doctoral fellow). Involved in modelling the behaviour of farmers with respect to animal health risk in herds. Research objectives are:

•  to analyse the economic issues influencing the participation/non participation of farmers in disease control strategies.
•   to bring economic components in an epidemiological model in order to reflect the impact individual decisions on disease dynamics

Supervised by C. Bidot (MaIAGE), S. Touzeau (MaIAGE) & C. Belloc (BioEpAR).

Funded by ANR

Researcher in computational epidemiology. The aim of his work is to model Salmonella contamination of pig carcasses after slaughter, taking into account real livestock outputs, transport, control measures and their costs of the swine and pork industries in Bretagne, France.
