ID Epi Spring Seminar Series 2025

Each spring, the CCDD hosts a seminar series featuring experts presenting the latest research in infectious disease epidemiology and modeling. The ID Epi Seminar Series aims to bring in speakers from various disciplines within infectious disease epidemiology, broadly defined to include the population biology of pathogens and other allied topics.

Seminars will be held on Thursdays, unless otherwise noted, at 1 p.m. ET between January 30 and May 8 with the exception of March 20 (spring break). Recordings of presentations will be made publicly available on this page each week as well as on our YouTube channel.

The seminars are held in hybrid format, both in-person and over Zoom. Room information is indicated for each speaker below. Attending virtually requires registration with the Zoom link at the top of the page.

Harvard Chan School seeks to bring in speakers with a wide range of experiences and perspectives. They will share their own insights and will not speak for the School or the University.
