Description

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have come a long way to understand the complex and changing dynamics of the severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by this virus (SARS-CoV-2).

Mathematical modeling and quantitative analysis of empirical data played a pivotal role to answer the emerging questions as the pandemic unfolds and to better understand and control the pandemic. Three articles are presented that describe and critique the role of modeling during the pandemic.

Speaker: Ulrich Mansmann, Ph.D. (LMU Munich, Germany)
