Cliff C. Kerr,Robyn M. Stuart,Robyn M. Stuart,Dina Mistry,Romesh G. Abeysuriya,Gregory R. Hart,Katherine Rosenfeld,Prashanth Selvaraj,Rafael C. Núñez,Brittany Hagedorn,Lauren George,Amanda S Izzo,Anna Palmer,Dominic Delport,Carrie Bennette,Bradley G. Wagner,Stewart T. Chang,Jamie A.

TL;DR: The methodology of Covasim (COVID-19 Agent-based Simulator), an open-source model developed to help address the urgent need for models that can project epidemic trends, explore intervention scenarios, and estimate resource needs, is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determining the optimal strategy for reopening schools, the impact of test and trace interventions, and the risk of occurrence of a second COVID-19 epidemic wave in the UK: a modelling study.
Jasmina Panovska-Griffiths,Jasmina Panovska-Griffiths,Cliff C. Kerr,Robyn M. Stuart,Robyn M. Stuart,Dina Mistry,Daniel J. Klein,Russell M Viner,Chris Bonell +8 more
TL;DR: To prevent a second COVID-19 wave, relaxation of physical distancing, including reopening of schools, in the UK must be accompanied by large-scale, population-wide testing of symptomatic individuals and effective tracing of their contacts, followed by isolation of diagnosed individuals.

TL;DR: Estimates suggest that earlier eligibility for antiretroviral therapy is very cost effective in low-income and middle-income settings, although these estimates should be revisited when more data become available.

Age trends and sex differences of alpha rhythms including split alpha peaks
A.K.I. Chiang,Chris Rennie,Chris Rennie,Peter A. Robinson,S.J. van Albada,Cliff C. Kerr,Cliff C. Kerr +6 more
TL;DR: The strong dependence of alpha frequency on age and anterior-posterior position indicates use of a fixed alpha frequency band is insufficient to capture the full characteristics of the alpha rhythm, potentially useful in testing theories of alpha generation.
