Title:  Modelling the spreading of SARS-CoV2 across different spatio-temporal scales

Abstract: In the talk, I will provide an overview of different approaches I have applied to model the unfolding of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects. In doing so, I will discuss the insights obtained by studying the initial phases of the pandemic in the USA, Europe, and Latin America. I will also discuss the impact of socio-economic inequalities on the Pandemic burden and vaccinations.

Bio: Dr Nicola Perra serves as Reader in Applied Mathematics in the School of Mathematical Science at Queen Mary University of London. His research focuses on human dynamics, data analytics, network science and digital epidemiology.
