This project will provide travel funds for graduate students and post-doctoral scholars to attend the Third Annual Conference on the Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases to be held at Colorado State University on 19-21 May, and to attend a workshop preceeding the conference. The purpose of the workshop is to provide hands-on training in modeling disease systems, especially as they pertain to long-term data sets. The field of ecology and evolution of infectious disease is rapidly expanding. However, there is an acute shortage of people trained in disease modeling or biologists who are sufficiently quantitative to work with mathematicians. The workshop will address this shortage. The training of graduate students and post-docs is especially important as they represent the new wave of researchers in this area. The conference is the third focusing on these topics and is becoming the primary annual meeting for this topic. The understanding of the ecology of infectious disease has important implications for human health and the economics of agriculture.

该项目将为研究生和博士后学者提供旅费，以参加将于5月19日至21日在科罗拉多州立大学举行的第三届传染病生态学和演变问题年度会议，并参加会议前的一个讲习班。该研讨会的目的是提供疾病系统建模方面的实践培训，特别是当它们涉及长期数据集时。传染病的生态学和进化领域正在迅速扩大。然而，在疾病建模或生物学家谁是足够的定量与数学家一起工作受过训练的人严重短缺。研讨会将解决这一短缺问题。研究生和博士后的培训尤为重要，因为他们代表了这一领域研究人员的新浪潮。该会议是第三次关注这些主题，并正在成为这一主题的主要年度会议。对传染病生态学的理解对人类健康和农业经济学具有重要意义。
