Biography

Hi! I’m Mario Ignacio Simoy but, if you want, you can call me Nacho!

I’m an Argentine mathematician specialized in infectious disease modeling. Currently, I’m a postdoctoral fellow at CONICET, working at Instituto de Investigaciones en Energía no Convencional (INENCO) in Salta, Argentina.

My research interests include mathematical and computational modeling to analyze the dynamics of populations and infectious diseases, focusing on mosquito-borne diseases.

Apart from my research activities, I enjoy trekking, cycling, and playing basketball!

Important point: I don’t have a favorite theorem yet. Do you have one? Maybe this list can help you to find one.

Ross-Macdonald Models: Which one should we use?

Ross-Macdonald models are the building blocks of most vector-borne disease models. Even for the same disease, different authors use different model formulations, but a study of the dynamical consequences of assuming different hypotheses is missing. In this work we present different formulations of the basic Ross-Macdonald model together with a careful discussion of the assumptions behind each model.
