Dahdaleh Institute for Global Health Research’s Post

Epidemiology is a core tool for effective public health response during humanitarian crises. Increasingly, modern analytical methods, like mathematical modelling, have been added to the epidemiological toolbox to attempt to describe the epidemiology of communicable diseases, decipher disease transmission dynamics, and simulate promising public health interventions among crisis-affected populations. Using the lenses of cholera response in crises and decolonial practices in global health, this seminar will explore the potential uses and challenges for modelling in crises to aid evidence generation and real-time decision-making. Join us on Wednesday, December 18 at 1 p.m. for Epidemiological Modelling in Humanitarian Crises: From Critical Insight to Public Health Action, with Ruwan Ratnayake.
