Optimal Deployment of Genetic Biocontrol Under Environmental Uncertainty
Offered By: The Julia Programming Language via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a stochastic programming approach for optimizing biocontrol intervention strategies against mosquito-borne diseases in this 17-minute conference talk from The Julia Programming Language. Learn how JuMP and Julia are applied to address the challenges of varying efficacy and cost across geographic regions, intervention technologies, and vector species. Discover how this method accommodates local-level operational objectives and limitations, potentially improving efficiency and equity in public health interventions. Examine the impact of climate change on arthropod ranges and disease transmission, and understand how this approach can inform the ecologically appropriate design of future public health trials. Gain insights into addressing global infectious disease burdens through advanced mathematical optimization techniques.
