Main aim will be analyzing the effect of heterogeneity in epidemic models and studying the application of models with heterogeneity to available data on influenza and other infectious diseases. Analyzing models for vector-borne epidemics, both by studying their application to available data, in particular on WNV, and by extending theoretical results in the case of seasonal environment, multi-host transmission and/or spatial spread.
