Modelling the COVID-19 Pandemic: CMMID COVID-19 symposium

Since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, members of the Centre for the Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases (CMMID) at LSHTM have been using mathematical modelling to predict the spread of the novel coronavirus as well as estimate the impact of different control measures.

In this symposium, eight speakers will present on a diverse range of research questions addressed in the last 12 months, from evaluating the impact of school closures, and air travel restrictions, to monitoring changes in mobility and social contact patterns.           

 

Speakers and titles

  • Dr Yang Liu: Evaluating Non-pharmaceutical Interventions in the COVID-19 Pandemic
  • Dr Alicia Rosello: Modelling the impact of nonpharmaceutical interventions in longterm care facilities
  • Dr Timothy Russell: Reconstructing the early global dynamics of under-ascertained COVID19 cases and infections
  • Amy Gimma: Changing social contact patterns through the COVID19 pandemic in the UK
  • Billy Quilty: Modelling of air travel intervention strategies for COVID19
  • Hamish Gibbs: Understanding UK local area interventions with Facebook mobility data
  • Dr James Munday: Analysing school networks to evaluate reopening policies
  • Dr Sophie Meakin: Short-term forecasting of COVID-19 hospitalisations in the UK

Please note that the time listed is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

 

The symposium will be followed by the CMMID Annual Lecture from 16.00 – 17.30

CMMID Annual Lecture "Modelling and Big Data for outbreak response: pre- and post-COVID-19"

 


LSHTM's response to COVID-19

LSHTM experts are involved in many different aspects of COVID-19 research as well as providing guidance to those responding around the globe every day. Find out about our latest research, news, events and free online courses on the outbreak.

Subscribe to our new LSHTM Viral podcast to hear the latest science behind the coronavirus outbreak and the global response to COVID-19. You can listen to LSHTM Viral wherever you get your podcasts: , , , , , , , , , .


There cannot be any complacency as to the need for global action. With your help, we can plug critical gaps in the understanding of COVID-19. This will support global response efforts and help to save lives around the world. Support LSHTM's COVID-19 Response Fund.
