    2006-Loyd-Wodarz-Drug Resistance in Acute Viral Infections-Rhinovirus as a Case Study
    We develop an epidemiological model that can be used to address the spread of resistance at the population level, and a virus dynamics model that can be used to study the dynamics of virus over the time course of an individual’s infection.

    2020-TeachingModule-SpreadOfCommonColdSimulation
    This simulation is meant to introduce the idea of a differential equation model and investigate the impact of heightened hygiene and decreased interactions on the spread of an infectious disease. The focus of this simulation is on the common cold.

    1-046-GoingViral-ModelingScenario
    Students participate in a simulation of the spread of a viral disease in the classroom and model the process with a logistic differential equation. The simulation uses random numbers and the entire class participates.

    1-084-GoingViral-ModelingScenario
    Students employ randomization in order to create a simulation of the spread of a viral disease in a population (the classroom). Students then use qualitative analysis of the expected behavior of the virus to devise a logistic differential equation.

    1-038-Ebola-ModelingScenario
    Students will use data published by the World Health Organization to model the 2014 outbreak of the Ebola virus in West Africa. We begin with a simple exponential growth model and move through the modeling process to the logistic growth model.
