Malloy is doing undergraduate research with Assistant Professor Mario Ventresca on analyzing and modeling Ebola spread in West Africa. In the future, he wants to use the study of computational methods to approach health policy.

“I think it’s a responsibility of our country to be a global partner for developing nations because it (pandemic disease) is a big economic setback,” Malloy said. “The next step is how do you bring these countries back to economic and political stability?”
