Our new study shows how wildfire smoke drives people indoors, potentially increasing the risk of disease spread. We highlight how health is shaped not only by direct exposure, but also by the compounding effects of how people respond to climate extremes.

Today Yundi Shi presented our work on how differential privacy algorithms applied to mobile phone data can impact the reliability of disease models. Exciting discussions on balancing privacy protection and public health needs!

Thank you to the Fritz Family Fellowship for supporting our research.

Bumping some timely work by @giuliapullano.bsky.social - wildfire smoke drives people indoors, which is problematic during respiratory virus season (now), especially for flu. But - if even 10% of people mask, it makes a big difference (and protects them from smoke!): www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

Great workshop! Great organizers! Thank you @joshuasweitz.bsky.social
Already 3+ days of talks, primers, and discussion on the challenges of developing unified and useful mathematical models that connect disease dynamics and human behavior.

Many thanks to the participants and Brin MRC@U of Maryland for making this possible.
