It includes (i) an introduction to the main concepts of compartmental models including models with heterogeneous mixing of individuals and models for vector-transmitted diseases, (ii) a detailed analysis of models for important specific diseases, including tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, influenza, Ebola virus disease, malaria, dengue fever and the Zika virus, (iii) an introduction to more advanced mathematical topics, including age structure, spatial structure, and mobility, and (iv) some challenges and opportunities for the future. There are exercises of varying degrees of difficulty, and projects leading to new research directions. For the benefit of public health professionals whose contact with mathematics may not be recent, there is an appendix covering the necessary mathematical background. There are indications which sections require a strong mathematical background so that the book can be useful for both mathematical modelers and public health professionals. . 410 0$aTexts in Applied Mathematics,$x0939-2475 ;$v69 606 $aBiomathematics 606 $aProbabilities 606 $aMathematical models 606 $aPhysiological, Cellular and Medical Topics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M31020 606 $aProbability Theory and Stochastic Processes$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M27004 606 $aMathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14068 615 0$aBiomathematics. 615 0$aProbabilities. 615 0$aMathematical models. 615 14$aPhysiological, Cellular and Medical Topics. 615 24$aProbability Theory and Stochastic Processes. 615 24$aMathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics. 676 $a614.4 700 $aBrauer$b Fred$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$066182 702 $aCastillo-Chavez$b Carlos$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aFeng$b Zhilan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349329703321 996 $aMathematical Models in Epidemiology$92530453 997 $aUNINA
