2012-Greer-Palin-Students in Differential Equations and Epidemiology Model a Campus Outbreak of pH1N1
We describe a semester-long collaboration between a mathematics class and a biology class. Students worked together to understand and model the trajectory of the pandemic H1N1, pH1N1, outbreak across campus in fall 2009.
