This $100,000 Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The grant supports a project titled "The Evolution of Human Behaviors in the Context of Emerging Diseases and Novel Vaccines" at Vanderbilt University. The project analyzes mathematical models that incorporate the interaction between human behavior and the transmission of epidemic diseases. The goal is to inform public health policy decisions implemented during major disease outbreaks. The models address factors such as social acceptance/resistance to interventions like distancing, closures, isolation, masking, and vaccination. The project advances interdisciplinary perspectives to develop more accurate and applicable epidemic disease models. It includes broader impacts such as K-12 educational materials and a bridge program to increase diversity in science. No sub-awards are planned for this 3-year project, which commenced on Sep 1, 2024.
