The workshop has both theoretical methods and practical applications and the
abstracts included in the program will cover research topics in population
dynamics, eco-epidemiology, epidemiology of infectious diseases, molecular
and antigenic evolution and methodical topics in the natural sciences
and mathematics. The program includes lectures by the invited speakers,
participants contributed talks poster presentation.

The workshop does not charge registration fee.

Participants are kindly requested to register by 20 January 2016. If you
intend to participate, please visit
