Professor Joshua M. Epstein, Director of the Agent-Based Modeling Lab, New York University
Tuesday 6 Feb, 5pm – 6.15pm GMT, Oxford Martin School Lecture Theatre & Online
Agent-Based Models (ABMS) are artificial societies of individual software people whose interactions generate large-scale social patterns - of violence, of inequality, and of disease. Epstein is a recognised pioneer in this method and has used ABMs to model pandemics from the 1918 Spanish Flu, to Bioterror Smallpox, to Ebola, to COVID-19.
