| General Description of the Research Project | This cooperative research project aims to devise mathematical models that capture the heterogeneous contact patterns as well as distant movement rate, intending to formulate scientific basis to plan prevention programs including forthcoming immunization strategies and non-pharmaceutical behavioral interventions. Mutually compensating modelling techniques for capturing temporal and spatial transmission dynamics, we answer policy-relevant questions via mathematical modelling. |
