| Brief Bio: |
| Dr. Daozhou Gao obtained his Ph.D. in applied mathematics from the University of Miami in 2012. After graduation, he worked as a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California, San Francisco until November 2015. Before joining CSU, he was a professor at the Department of Mathematics in Shanghai Normal University in China.
His primary research interests focus on mathematical epidemiology, population ecology and differential equations. Specially, he uses differential equations to model the transmission of infectious diseases and apply analytical techniques and computational methods to study the effects of human movement on disease spread, to discover the influence of behavior change on disease transmission, and to guide mass drug administration. So far, he has published more than 40 articles in peer-reviewed journals including several highly cited papers. Particularly, three papers on the journal SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics were selected as SIAM Nuggets and reported by SIAM news. Their modeling study on Zika virus disease that included both mosquito-borne and sexual transmission received considerable media coverage including Canadian Television Network, WLRN and WGCU radio stations, O Globo in Brazil, El Comercio in Peru, and Guokr in China. In addition, he co-edited two special issues on modeling COVID-19 and mathematical biology, respectively. |
