Predicting pandemics: how to model an outbreak of zombiism

This is an online event.

Can models predict the future? How does that work? Epidemiological models have been mentioned in the media every day for months now as the way to predict the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many other models have also been developed to study other critical questions that have arisen, such as the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in indoor spaces and how masks can fit your face better.

Dr Thomas Woolley and Dr Katerina Kaouri, two mathematical modellers (Senior Lecturers) at the School of Mathematics at Cardiff University, will bring to you an interactive session on pandemic modelling. Thomas will deliver a talk on zombiism and both Katerina and Thomas will relay some of their COVID-19 modelling work and answer your questions. Suitable for children aged 11+.
