Collaborations and Consulting

The EpiCenter works with local, regional, and international collaborators to provide study design and analytical support. In conjunction with government agency partners, we also provide modeling and disease forecasting support for improved disease surveillance. Explore our recent collaborations below.

Skywalker Gibbon Conservation Project

The EpiCenter is working in collaboration with in-country and international stakeholders and project scientists to advance sustainable conservation efforts of one of the world’s rarest and most endangered gibbon species.

Figure 3: Number of predicted SARS-COV2 infected individuals in a classroom. The scenario represents the number of infected individuals with 90% and no preventive measures such as masking and social distancing. Grey lines show individual stochastic simulations, and the red line shows the mean of all 100 stochastic simulations.

Modeling SARS-CoV-2 spread in a classroom setting

With the return to in-person instruction this fall, UC Davis turned to Dr. Pranav Pandit and the EpiCenter to provide crucial modeling data on the potential of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in a classroom setting.

An Integrated Population Model for Southern Sea Otters

In collaboration with state and federal partners, the EpiCenter contributed to disease dynamics modeling as a critical part of recovery management and planning decisions for southern sea otters.

Wildlife Morbidity and Mortality Event Alert System

By utilizing data from Wildlife Rehabilitation MD, the Epicenter worked with the Wildlife Health Center to develop a machine learning model and algorithm for detecting unusual wildlife illness and alerting rehabilitation organizations and investigators.

Improving the probability that small-scale science will benefit conservation

The EpiCenter collaborated with the SeaDoc Society to analyze and evaluate almost 20 years of small-scale conservation research data to identify the scientific parameters associated with beneficial conservation actions.
