PNNL Announces Next Seminar as part of its Special Edition Community Science and Technology Seminar Series

The next seminar in Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s Special Edition Community Science and Technology Seminar Series, “Model Me This: COVID-19 Scientific Predictions and Where We Go from Here,” presented by Tim Scheibe, lead scientist for PNNL’s River Corridor Scientific Focus Area project, will take place on Tuesday, March 30, 2021 at 5pm via Zoom.
 
Data, data everywhere, put it in a model to see how we might fare. No need for magic when we have robust scientific tools at our fingertips. Using mathematical representations of disease patterns, scientists are beginning to learn how COVID-19 swept the globe across diverse human populations. These epidemiological models are being used to help guide policy decisions and inform public health guidelines. Join this talk to learn what types of models exist, how they’re developed, how they’re used, and how they might predict our future.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s Community Science and Technology Seminar Series was launched to help the general public better understand and explore how science transforms our world.
