This award will fund travel by six students to the Clinic on Dynamical Approaches to Infectious Disease Data being held in Stellenbosch, South Africa. The Clinic is designed for participants without substantial experience in scientific computing or in mathematical modeling. Training focuses on how the complex dynamics of pathogen transmission influence study design and data collection for addressing applied problems in infectious disease research. The workshop focuses on training in both mathematical epidemiology and biomedical epidemiology. Each tradition contributes its own distinct set of research methodologies. The training focuses on using models to ask research questions that are fully grounded in the participants? previous experiences. Participants will learn how to identify which research questions can and cannot benefit from development of a dynamical modeling program. By providing training in both mathematical epidemiology and biomedical epidemiology, the students will be well poised for future research in these areas.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项将资助六名学生前往南非斯泰伦博斯举行的传染病数据动态方法诊所。该诊所是专为参与者没有在科学计算或数学建模方面的丰富经验。培训的重点是病原体传播的复杂动态如何影响研究设计和数据收集，以解决传染病研究中的应用问题。该讲习班侧重于数学流行病学和生物医学流行病学方面的培训。每一种传统都贡献了自己独特的研究方法。培训的重点是使用模型来提出完全基于参与者的研究问题。以前的经历。 参与者将学习如何识别哪些研究问题可以和不能从动态建模程序的开发中受益。通过提供数学流行病学和生物医学流行病学方面的培训，学生将为这些领域的未来研究做好准备。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
