This award will fund a workshop at Stanford University June 22-24, 2024, in conjunction with the annual Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases (EEID) conference. The workshop will offer a mix of cutting-edge quantitative training and applied skills related to classic compartmental epidemiological models, estimating environmental response functions using Bayesian inference, and geospatial data analysis using Google Earth Engine. Students will learn how disease ecology models are applied in real-world scenarios from practitioners with experience working in public health and nonprofit sectors. The workshop will feature a dynamic schedule that intersperses quantitative and applied training sessions. This workshop will support scientific training and networking opportunities for at least 40 students from across demographic groups, institutions, and educational backgrounds in cutting edge quantitative and applied tools in disease ecology. The project-based instruction will encourage students to build collaborations among students that will help to form lasting bonds. Students will also receive hand-on instruction in small classrooms (~30 students per track) to ensure networking opportunities with the instructors. Several early-career instructors will receive teaching opportunities to showcase their work in an applied context and to build up their networks with students and post-doctoral scholars.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.

该奖项将于2024年6月22日至24日在斯坦福大学与年度生态和传染病的演变（EEID）会议一起资助。该研讨会将提供与经典隔离流行病学模型相关的尖端定量培训和应用技能，使用贝叶斯推理估算环境响应功能以及使用Google Earth Engine进行地理空间数据分析。学生将学习如何在从业人员和非营利部门工作的从业人员的实际情况中应用疾病生态模型。研讨会将采用动态时间表，插入定量和应用培训课程。该研讨会将支持来自人口群体，机构，机构以及疾病生态学领域的尖端定量和应用工具的至少40名学生的科学培训和网络机会。基于项目的指导将鼓励学生在学生之间建立合作，以帮助形成持久的纽带。学生还将在小教室（每条轨道约30名学生）中获得手工教学，以确保与讲师的网络机会。几位早期职业讲师将获得教学机会，以在应用的环境中展示他们的工作，并与学生和博士后学者建立网络。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估标准通过评估来支持的。
