Plagues and People in the Modern WorldMS.02, ZeemanPresented by: Professor Sir Roy Anderson (Imperial) The historical and epidemiological literature abound with accounts of infectious disease epidemics and of the concomitant effects on population abundance, social organisation and the unfolding pattern of historical events. Epidemics have long been a source of fear and fascination in human societies, but it is only in comparatively recent times that their origins and patterns have begun to yield their secrets through mathematical and scientific study. The talk will examine the role played by predictive modelling in modern infectious disease epidemiology and will illustrate this by reference to past epidemics including the very recent H1N1 influenza pandemic (Did we overreact ? How can we better measure and predict pathogenicity? Will the H1N1 experience have a detrimental impact on how we respond to future epidemics?). The talk will also examine some of the neglected tropical diseases to address how can epidemiological modelling help the poorest societies in the world control infection and disease, and also help international agencies develop cost effective policies? Free attendanceThere will be a reception after the lecture Main contact point: paula.matthews@warwick.ac.uk Downloads: 2014-002-12-roy-anderson.pdf |

Applied Topology and Stochastic Geometry SeminarB1.01Audrey Kueh talks about the Cosmic Microwave Background. In the past 20 years, there has been a glut of high resolution data from Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE), Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) and the Planck Probe. However, the band containing the Milky Way is polluted with emissions from the Milky Way itself, thus we have incomplete data. Also, there is only 'one' observation. She will talk about spherical wavelets and how they sidestep the above problems and shed light on the origin of the universe. |
