CIMPLEX

Interconnecting the spread of infectious diseases with social, economic and other systemic aspects, able to analyse the systemic risk inherent to epidemics and social contagion processes.

CIMPLEX has developed modelling, computational, and ICT tools needed to predict and influence disease spread and other contagion phenomena in complex social systems
