DESCRIPTION:&ldquo\;Spatial Dynamics of Vector-Borne Diseases&rdquo\;
Vector-borne diseases affect approximately 1 billion people and account for 17% of all infectious diseases. With travel becoming more frequent across the globe\, it is important to understand the spatial dynamics of vector-borne diseases. Host movement plays a key part on how a disease can be distributed as it enables a pathogen to invade a new environment\, and helps the persistence of a disease in locations that would otherwise be isolated. In this talk\, we will explore how spatial heterogeneity combines with mobility network structure to influence vector-borne disease dynamics.

Omar Saucedo is a Postdoctoral Fellow at The Ohio State University&rsquo\;s Mathematical Biosciences Institute.
