Great to be involved in putting this one together!
Artificial intelligence for modelling infectious disease epidemics, now out in @Nature
Lots of exciting scope for using AI technologies to advance infectious disease research and preparedness!
https://t.co/mpB2rl6cGW
Thrilled that our perspective on AI for modeling infectious diseases - led by @MOUGK and Samir Bhatt - is now published in @Nature !

AI is poised to accelerate understanding in infectious diseases, but its value needs to be demonstrated through close collaboration between research, industry, society, and policy.

New @Nature
How #AI can play a pivotal role in future pandemic preparedness and mitigation, with caveats

The Covid pandemic suppressed Flu.
A new @ScienceMagazine study investigated why

—nonpharmacologic intervention (masking, physical distancing)
—reduced international travel
—change in virus lineage dwell times
The Oropouche virus expansion in Brazil was a concerning case of arbovirus emergence outside of its endemic range, and so many questions remained!
We aimed to answer some of them by integrating landscape phylogeography and ecological niche modelling!
