Designing a more effective vaccination program takes math as well as medicine, says Dr. David Earn, assistant professor of mathematics and statistics.

 

He’s the recipient of a Canadian Institutes for Health Research New Investigator Award for his work on infectious diseases. Interested in understanding patterns of epidemics, Dr. Earn uses mathematics to discover better strategies for control or eradication of infectious diseases.

Originally, Dr. Earn, used math to study planetary motion and patterns of stars in galaxies, and has studied the use of “conservation corridors” to help protect species at risk due to habitat fragmentation.
