International Centre For Applied Mathematical Modelling And Data Analytics

International Centre for Applied Mathematical Modelling and Data Analytics (ICAMMDA), Federal University Oye-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria* is a member of the West Africa Mathematical Modelling Capacity Development (WAMCAD). With funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, WAMCAD: Anglophone – Francophone – Lusophone partnership, comprising several International Research Institutions: University of Thies, Senegal; University of Conakry, Guinea; Bandim Health Project, Guinea Bissau; University of Ghana and International Centre for Applied Mathematical Modelling and Data Analytics, Federal University Oye-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria. Our objective is to enhance technical capacity development in malaria and NTD modelling through a multi-track training program targeting multiple career stages from students to faculty as well as malaria control practitioners. On our team are highly motivated individuals who want to develop statistical and mathematical modelling skills for malaria and NTDs modelling research. We are exploring the fascinating potential of Mathematical Modelling to support National Malaria Control Programmes (NMCPs). ICAMMDA is a centre comprising of great people with strong quantitative skills and an interest in global health. Our scholars are working on the development, refinement, and application of sophisticated infectious disease models for epidemiological research and intervention-campaign planning. Our team collaborates with northern partners: Northwestern University, Malaria Consortium USA, SWISS TPH, Oxford University, Global Malaria Programme at the World Health Organization, PATH. Also, we partner with academics, NGOs, and local partners including National Malaria Control Programs (NMCP), Nigeria, and Malaria Consortium Abuja, Nigeria. As part of the WAMCAD, we work with other leaders in malaria modelling to advise the National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP), Abuja, Nigeria on global eradication strategy.*Facebook*: ICAMMDA WAMCAD
