When it was -37ºC cold in the Yukon wilderness yesterday, was feeling like -47ºC with the windchill, I warmed myself with high energy Bhangra moves. Sending this joy and positivity across Canada and beyond.

This National Museum of Mathematics event about mathematical modeling/game theory & #COVID19 by Chris Bauch Chris Bauch math.uwaterloo.ca/~cbauch (intro by former CDC director Julie Gerberding) sounds interesting like all MoMath events! Free registration: momath.org/civicrm/?page=… #mtbos #iteachmath #mathisfun

I'm giving a public lecture for the US National Museum of Mathematics on COVID-19, mathematical models and game theory, this wednesday (one talk at 4 PM EST, same one again at 7 PM EST). Should be accessible to ages 12+. Register at momath.org/math-encounter…

If you think NPIs (closures, etc.) aren't necessary, please read our preprint which estimates how many lives were saved in Ontario during the first wave because of them. Work in collaboration with @VKaratayev @globalecochange Chris Bauch. doi.org/10.1101/2021.0…

So proud of my partner!

Here's a resource for anyone aged 12-99 to build a COVID-19 transmission model in Excel/Google Sheets and understand simple epidemic dynamics... YouTube videos developed by our own kids! Please share as an educational resource Dr. Alison Galvani @AdamJKucharski Carl T. Bergstrom

Madhur @globalecochange and I are looking for postdocs: jobrxiv.org/job/university…
