报告题目:Effects of Human Movement on the Spatial Spread of Infectious Diseases
报告时间:2019年1月7 日 15:30-17:00;
报告地点:格物楼503室
报告摘要:Human movement facilitates the introduction, establishment and spread of infectious diseases. Epidemic models with spatial effects have developed rapidly in the past three decades. They play an important role in characterizing, predicting, and controlling disease spread. The majority of these studies focus on disease dynamics and most models have shown threshold behavior in terms of the basic reproduction number R0, i.e., the disease dies out if R0<1 and becomes persistent otherwise. In this talk, I will present some existing results and recent advances on the persistence of either directly transmitted diseases or vector-borne diseases in a patchy environment.
