sfera con formule matematica
Speaker: Ana Bento (Cornell University) and Carla Mavian (University of Florida)

After causing a large outbreak in the Americas in 2016, Zika went silent, but has it really? Harnessing genomic surveillance, Dr. Bento and Mavian explore cryptic transmission events and propose new avenues to integrate phylodynamics into mathematical modeling.
