The ABM-Lab offers a research and training program to develop professional skills with a solid theoretical background in systems biology, with particular emphasis on computational epidemiology, pathogen-host dynamics, ecological interactions, inference and data analysis, stochastic modelling and agent-based simulations, and use of smart technologies in modelling infectious diseases. The program provides an enriched environment for interdisciplinary networking activities and collaborations across disciplines with the involvement of stakeholders, industrial partners, and knowledge users.
 | The ABM-Lab hosts Areto computational cluster with a private network, Mac Pro workstations for all research activities, and 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, and Mitacs.
