Gerardo Chowell - Epidemiology

Author Information

Gerardo Chowell is affiliated with the Department of Population Health Sciences at the School of Public Health, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA, USA. His extensive research focuses on epidemiology, particularly in understanding the transmission dynamics and spatial-temporal patterns of infectious diseases.

Research Contributions

Gerardo Chowell has made significant contributions to the field of epidemiology, particularly in understanding the transmission dynamics and spatial-temporal patterns of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 and influenza. His recent work includes investigating the COVID-19 pandemic's spatial-temporal patterns in Colombia, monitoring social media for reporting unplanned school closures due to wildfires in California, and studying the influenza incidence and transmission in Nicaragua. He has also examined the disparities in SARS-CoV-2 transmission potential and disease burden across different regions in the USA and developed models to forecast COVID-19 cases during the pandemic's first wave in the USA and Europe.
