TALK: Student Mathematics Seminar: Sex, Diffusion and Networks Tue, 21 May 2013 13:00 - Mathematics Lecture Room 2 Thomas Stemler Applied mathematicians are often accused of screwing around with the ideas pure colleagues had. In this talk I am going to prove that sometimes this accusation is true. Using a network of social interactions I will show how we can model the spread of a sexual transmitted disease in a society. While most of the work has been done by research groups in Europe, the results are similar to some of Michael Small who worked on SARS modelling that I will mention as well.
