Overview

Richard M. Cooper was affiliated with the University of Bath in the United Kingdom. Their research spanned multiple fields, prominently Medicine and Engineering, with specific focus on Epidemiology, Civil and Structural Engineering, Microbiology, and Pollution.

Their work addressed a range of topics including Bacterial Infections and Vaccines, Pneumonia and Respiratory Infections, Infective Endocarditis Diagnosis and Management, Asphalt Pavement Performance Evaluation, Infrastructure Maintenance and Monitoring, and Smart Materials for Construction.

Cooper had contributions published in several academic venues. Notably, they appeared in the journal Emerging infectious diseases and the Transportation Research Record Journal of the Transportation Research Board.

Two research papers were published in recent years. One paper from 2024 discussed a meningococcal disease outbreak involving multidrug-resistant Neisseria meningitidis in Fiji, published in Emerging infectious diseases. Another paper, published in 2025, evaluated the impacts of workmanship and chemical composition on pavement marking retroreflectivity degradation, appearing in the Transportation Research Record Journal of the Transportation Research Board.

Their collaborative network included frequent coauthors such as Aneley Getahun Strobel, Aalisha Sahukhan, Anaseini Ratu, Jimaima Kailawadoko, and Isireli Koroituku.
