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...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) award, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program, provides $700,000 over 3 years to Northeastern University to develop mathematical models and computational algorithms that incorporate group-level behavioral responses into epidemic models. The research aims to better understand how social interactions, risk-mitigating norms, and the formation of pandemic "social bubbles" influence the trajectories of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) Project Grant award of $200,000 to the Georgia State University Research Foundation Inc. supports research to advance iteratively regularized numerical algorithms for reliable estimation of infectious disease parameters from noisy data. The project aims to develop new regularized alternating minimization algorithms to solve ill-posed parameter-estimation problems constrained by nonlinear dynamics, with...
This $968,765 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences (CFDA 47.049 - Mathematical and Physical Sciences) will develop a flexible modeling framework to simulate the impact of various testing-based infection control strategies for respiratory pathogens like SARS-CoV-2. The project aims to improve our ability to control existing respiratory diseases and enhance preparedness for future pandemics. Key deliverables include: Developing a...

The research will provide tools for analyzing time series of point process data, with applications in fields such as national security, economics, neuroscience, and geosciences. Key activities include developing parameter estimation procedures,...
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 (NSF), Division of Mathematical Sciences, supports the development of data-driven, multimodal methods for behavior-based epidemiological modeling. With a total funding of $150,000 over the period of October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026, the project aims to address the challenges of behavior-based epidemiological modeling by establishing a unified modeling framework. Key products and services delivered under this grant include:...
This $201,299 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to develop novel predictive models of epidemic spread dynamics and validate those models using COVID-19 data. The funding will be used to conduct fundamental research advancing the scientific understanding of how uncertainties in human behavior and pathogen characteristics influence spatial and temporal stochastic epidemic dynamics. Specific aims of the research include developing new predictive dynamic models based on...
