NCCID's new mod4PH Research Highlights podcast showcases new and relevant mathematical modelling concepts and research for public health.

In this episode, we spoke with Dr Jane Heffernan from York University about using mathematical modelling methods for understanding and controlling infectious diseases in individuals (or immunology) and in populations (or epidemiology), and discuss the differences between within-host and population-level modelling.
