State of Science

This is the first webinar in a series that discusses the current state and future direction of critical healthcare infrastructure modeling for disaster events including climate change influences. This project focuses on developing a platform that integrates several variables (“extreme event forecasts, health risk/impact assessment and population simulations, critical infrastructure (electrical, water, transportation, communication) impact and response models, healthcare facility-specific vulnerability and failure assessments, and health system/patient flow responses”) to improve regional healthcare system resilience.
