NSF/CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences-"Mathematical Epidemiology with Applications"-"July 18-22, 2011"

NSF/CBMS数学科学区域会议--“数学流行病学及其应用”--2011年7月18日至22日鉴于最近的流行病，如SARS和H1N1病毒引起的流行病，应用数学工具更好地了解传染病的传播、传播和控制的重要性正变得新的重要。最新的疫情分析不仅包括国际旅行，还包括文化、政治和社会因素。NSF-CBMS区域研究会议“数学流行病学与应用”将向这一令人兴奋的领域引进新一代数学科学家，同时建立合作和工作组，在未来几年将产生更多的研究。会议将有两位数学流行病学领域的领先专家，不列颠哥伦比亚大学的弗雷德·布劳尔教授和亚利桑那州立大学的卡洛斯·卡斯蒂略-查韦斯教授的十次主旨演讲。

NSF/CBMS Regional Conference in the Mathematical Sciences-"Mathematical Epidemiology with Applications"-July 18-22, 2011The criticality of mathematical tools applied to better understand transmission, spread and control of infectious diseases is assuming new importance, in light of recent epidemics, such as those caused by SARS and H1N1 viruses. Up-to-date epidemic analyses incorporate cultural, political, and social factors along side with international travel. The NSF-CBMS Regional Research Conference "Mathematical Epidemiology with Applications" will introduce a new generation of mathematical scientists to this exciting area, while setting in place collaborations and working groups that will generate much more research in the years to come.The conference will feature ten keynote lectures by two leading experts in the field of mathematical epidemiology, Professor Fred Brauer of the University of British Columbia, and Professor Carlos Castillo-Chavez of Arizona State University.
