ABM Lab

Seyed is working on compute cluster

The ABM-Lab offers a research and training program to develop professional skills with a solid theoretical background in computational epidemiology, with particular emphasis on infectious disease dynamics, inference and data analytics, stochastic modelling and simulations, and use of advanced methods for informing public health decision-making. The program provides an enriched environment for networking activities and collaborations across disciplines with the involvement of stakeholders, industrial partners, and knowledge users.

The ABM-Lab hosts Areto compute cluster infrastructure, under a Canada Foundation for Innovation award, with a private network, Mac Pro workstations for all research activities, a high-end server, and large storage capacity. Smart technologies and communication portals are available for collaboration, and sharing information and knowledge generated in the Lab. The ABM-Lab is an independent research entity hosted by the Faculty of Science, and its research and training activities are supported by several funding agencies including CIHR, NSERC, Mitacs and industrial partners.
