The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $200,000 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the University of Virginia to develop data-driven, multimodal methods for behavior-based epidemiological modeling. The key objectives are to: Improve techniques for deriving meaningful insights from imperfect, real-world sensor data like mobile phones and search engine logs to capture complex human behaviors in real-time. Couple agent-based disease models...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) aims to incorporate group-level behavioral responses into epidemic models. The award of $700,000 will support research to develop mathematical models and computational algorithms that capture how group behaviors, such as the formation of social bubbles and changes in risk-mitigating norms, can impact pandemic trajectories. The project, led by Northeastern University,...
This $108,131 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program will fund research at Duke University to establish a new efficient simulation method for assessing rare but highly consequential epidemic events. The project aims to identify key risk factors in virus-spreading interactions that can facilitate large outbreaks, using disease models similar to COVID-19 and HIV as case studies. The research will provide improved...
