- Book Synopsis
- Finding effective methods for mosquito control remains one of the great global challenges facing this generation. Bio-mathematics, Statistics and Nano-Technologies: Mosquito Control Strategies brings together experts from a large array of disciplines in order to provide a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge techniques to model, analyse and combat mosquito-transmitted vector-borne diseases. Features Includes multiple case studies Suitable for scientists and professionals working on methods for mosquito control and epidemiology Provide a much-needed focal point for interdisciplinary discussion
- About The Author
- Dr Peyman Ghaffari received his Ph.D. in Mathematical-Physics (Non-linear Dynamics and Complex Systems) at Imperial College (London) 1997. He also received his M.S. (German Diploma in Physics) 1993 in Theoretical Plasma Physics at University of Düsseldorf (Germany). After completing his PhD at Imperial College, he worked as an industrial consultant in Germany and UAE for 12 years focusing on establishing Joint-Ventures between International companies wanting to penetrate the Middle Eastern and European markets. In 2006 Dr. Ghaffari returned to academia as a visiting/associate scientist at Imperial College, parallel to his consultancy. In 2007 he co-founded the "Complexity and Interdisciplinary Research Centre (CIRC)" at Imperial College providing a platform to transmit the ideas of "Complexity Research" into Industry. Since March 2010 until Dec 2018, he has worked at the University of Lisbon in the Biomathematics and Statistics Group and has participated in several scientific projects resulting in associated scientific articles. Since 2020 he is continuing his research as an associate researcher at CIDMA (University of Aveiro).In June 2017 he won the prestigious EU- COST Grant (CA16227) as proposal writer (estimates for 4 years ca. 700.000 Euro). Since Sept. 2017 he has been the Chair of this Action (www.imaac.eu) with around 100 members in around 35 countries involved. He also founded a yearly Training School ("International Training School on Optimal Control Theory and Mosquito Control Strategies") in 2018 and a yearly conference in 2019 on Political Decision Making and Vector-Borne Diseases aiming to bring political decision makers and scientists together. Dr. Ghaffari is working now on application of Optimal Control Theory on deterministic and stochastic epidemiological models. Other scientific interests include Complex Systems, Self-Organization, Fractional Derivatives, Neuronal Networks and Industrial Mathematics.
