Описание: Models are key tools used to predict the spread of infectious diseases and design optimal treatment or control strategies. In addition to simulating importantbiological, clinical and epidemiological features of an infection, models also must often consider human behavior and health disparities, which are key determinants of infection risk. Alison Hill will discuss approaches researchers take to incorporate these ideas into their modeling tools. She will discuss example models from her own group, addressing how adherence to medication impacts the risk of HIV treatment resistance, how the structure of human contact networks influences epidemic spread, and the role of housing policy in controlling infections like bed bugs and COVID-19. #ScienceWritersBootCamp #JohnsHopkins
