Watch this PBS NewsHour segment on COVID-19 modeling with Miles O’Brien interviewing MIDAS members Betz Halloran and Nicholas Reich.
The Reich Lab’s COVID-19 Forecast Hub standardizes forecast data from many models to create an ensemble model, including models from several other MIDAS researchers. The CDC and news media such as FiveThirtyEight use the COVID-19 Forecast Hub as a data source.
This week we highlight several MIDAS female researchers featured in the news media.
2020 Webby Special Achievement Award presented to Trevor Bedford and Nextstrain.org.
Join us for our second webinar, featuring COVID-19 research by Dr. Thomas McAndrew and the Reich Lab.
Eberly's Matt Ferrari @TheFerrariLab of @PennStateBio and @ciddpsu is among the @penn_state scientists working with local government and community groups to understand and quantify the range of impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Centre County 👨🔬 https://buff.ly/3ga6MiQ
