\nAs a researcher my work is related to mathematical models of life events such as the dynamic of metapopulation models of the spread of diseases. The topics of mathematical population and biological disease models interest me because it is a way to apply mathematics in real life situations that are important for our society, to protect the population form an epidemic, and to help governments wise decisions to eradicate (or mitigate the effect of) diseases. I worked on metapopulation models of infectious diseases such as avian influenza and chlamydia as well as tropical vector borne diseases such as a chikungunya and dengue. I am currently working on the impact of COVID-19 Mitigation Measurements and a metapopulation model of the spread of COVID-19 in the municipalities of Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n
