DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Julien Arino (University of Manitoba\, Winnipeg\, Ma
 nitoba (Canada))\nSome northern communities in Canada see inordinately hig
 h tuberculosis incidence compared to the rest of the country. Most of the 
 affected locations are isolated First Nations communities and while this m
 eans that the usual argument of tuberculosis as an indicator disease of po
 verty is applicable\, it does not explain the specifics of the situation. 
 To try to understand the role of the various factors at play\, we focus on
  two specific aspects: household size and community structure. We investig
 ate this using a simple discrete-time model for households\, which we stud
 y analytically and with numerical simulations. \nThis is joint work with R
 yan Sherbo.\n\nhttps://conferences.maths.unsw.edu.au/event/2/contributions
