Abstract

Public policy interventions are critical for the management of pandemics but predictions about their impact are often flawed as they disregard the behavioral responses by individuals. The project will establish an integrative framework combining epidemiological and economic modeling to address this challenge. Using the insights and data generated by the current COVID-19 pandemic, it seeks to inform decision making processes in current and future health challenges.
