Modeling Virus Dynamics – Dr. Rong

Abstract:

Mathematical models, combined with experimental data, have made significant contributions to our understanding of virus dynamics. In this talk, I will introduce some models developed to study virus infections (HIV, hepatitis, influenza, and the recent coronavirus), drug treatment, and immune responses. Model formulation, mathematical analysis, and validation by data will be presented. Implications of modeling results for the control of virus infection will also be discussed.
