Title: Mathematical Modeling and Public Health

Speaker: Dr. Felicia Magpantay

Description: Mathematical modeling is a powerful tool for studying complex systems. Recently we have seen many of its applications in designing public health strategies during a pandemic. In this lecture we will discuss some of the history behind mathematics applied to public health, and some open research problems.

Note: This lecture is being offered in conjunction with the Workshop on Mathematical Ecology Modeling Epidemics on August 10th and 11th.
