We invite researchers from all areas, places and career stages to visit the Epidemy Lab in Edinburgh and to collaborate with the team on research relating to the modern history of epidemiology.
Models have guided the Covid-19 pandemic response with unprecedented authority. The workshop seeks to push beyond this very recent horizon to show that the success story of infectious disease modelling is deeply interwoven with the history of science and medicine.
