SFU President’s Lecture
The pandemic brought math and data into the public eye, with herd immunity and flattening curves. But what can we know about a new infectious disease? What key data can tell us what we’re facing? How can new technologies illuminate the spread and evolution of a possible pandemic, and show us what we might do to prevent it?
Join me on November 29th, 2023 as I showcase how new data and mathematics are setting the stage for preventing pandemics and consider why the world needs public data about infectious diseases and their evolution.
