Infectious Disease Modelling with a focus on Malaria

Welcome to the Welcome to the AComVec workshop on Infectious Disease Modelling with a focus on Malaria.

You will be using the interface to explore and understand the basics of infectious disease modelling.

Materials

Practical 1

Introduction to R0 and the odin interface

Go to app

  1. Exponential growth
  2. SIR closed
  3. SIR open
  4. SIR open with R0
  5. SEIRS


Practical 2

Introduction to the Ross-MacDonald malaria model

Go to app

  1. Simple malaria model solution
  2. Latent malaria model solution
  3. Delay malaria model solution


Help

The following resources were compiled for the short course: Introduction to Mathematical Models of the Epidemiology & Control of Infectious Diseases. They are applicable here.

A general help file for writing model (odin) code and navigating the interface can be found here.

For transitioning from this interface into R and Rstudio we have compiled a list of useful resources and a simple example to start the transition
