SBIDER presents episodes
- How to estimate the reproduction number using both epidemiological and genetic data? - Alicia Gill | SBIDER Presents - Episode 12
In this episode of SBIDER Presents we are joined by Alicia GIll. We discuss with Alicia their research looking at particle MCMC methods and its application to Bayesian inference of infectious disease dynamics from epidemiological and genetic data. Have feedback?

13 min - Investigating symptom propagation: What are the implications for infectious disease modelling and health economic evaluations? - Phoebe Asplin | SBIDER Presents - Episode 11
Phoebe Asplin discusses recent publications associated with her PhD project, using mathematical models as a tool to explore the extent to which symptom propagation exists and its subsequent impact on infectious disease and health economic modelling assessments.

14 min - Can we use mathematical modelling to investigate within-host dynamics of H5N1 influenza infection in humans? | SBIDER Presents - Episode 10
In this episode of SBIDER Presents we are joined by Daniel Higgins, Josh Looker and Robert Sunnucks. We discuss their work on introducing a framework for intra-host dynamics and mutations modelling of H5N1 influenza infection in humans. Carried out as a group project as part of the Mathematics for Real-World Systems (MathSys) Centre for Doctoral Training MSc course, we also reflect on the group’s project experiences.

29 min - How can we measure the growth of infections during an epidemic? | SBIDER Presents - Episode 9
We discuss the research article “Bayesian estimation of real-time epidemic growth rates using Gaussian processes: local dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 in England” and methods to get reasonable estimates of the change in rate of infection in small, localised populations.

21 min - How can farmer behaviour be incorporated into models for livestock disease transmission? | SBIDER presents - Episode 8
We discuss the research article “Incorporating heterogeneity in farmer disease control behaviour into a livestock disease transmission model” and interdisciplinary approaches for collecting data on diversity in farmer livestock disease management behaviours.

22 min - Antimicrobial resistance and pathogen genomic data - Xavier Didelot | SBIDER presents - Episode 7
Prof Xavier Didelot discusses the research article "Estimating the fitness cost and benefit of antimicrobial resistance from pathogen genomic data" and how modelling that uses genomic data can inform the use of antibiotics in a way that mitigates the spread of antimicrobial resistance.
