EMD Seminar Series: Virginia Pitzer - "Modeling to Inform Vaccine Policy for Enteric Diseases"

Evidence-based decision making for vaccine policy often relies on modeling approaches to estimate the burden of disease and identify the optimal vaccine strategy. This is becoming increasingly important as the number of available vaccines increases and funding for health interventions is limited. In this talk, I will provide recent examples of how the Pitzer lab uses mathematical and statistical models combined with cost-effectiveness analysis to inform important policy decisions for the use of vaccines to prevent rotavirus and typhoid fever in low- and middle-income countries.
