    2018-Van_Kinh Nguyen-Esteban_Hernandez-Vargas-Parameter estimation in mathematical models of viral infections using R
    Mathematical modeling has played a central role to understand mechanisms in different viral infectious diseases. In this approach, biological-based hypotheses are expressed via mathematical relations and then tested based on empirical data.

    2011-Yanyu_Xiao-Study of Malaria Transmission Dynamics by Mathematical Models
    The novelty lies in the fact that different distribution functions are used to describe the variance of individual latencies. The theoretical results of this project indicate that latencies reduce the basic reproduction number.

    Deterministic compartmental models form the simplest models in the mathematical study of infectious disease dynamics. They assume that a population is homogenous (all people are the same) and the only distinction is in their disease state.
