Wayne Wakeland will discuss prediction and health policy Abstract: The talk will explore a conundrum related to health policy system dynamics models: the admonition from SD luminaries regarding prediction. Certainly, claiming to make predictions is fraught with risk, and yet we simply must run our models beyond the available data if we are to anticipate […]
We will meet in person (Crystal Room) at the 2023 International System Dynamics Conference in Chicago. Our primary focus for this meeting will be community building and encouraging members to share their work in upcoming SIG meetings. We will also discuss our strategy for maintaining effective SIG leadership going forward.
TITLE: A systems approach to children's health in Least Developed Countries ABSTRACT: There are 46 countries classified as ‘Least Developed’, where poverty, food insecurity and violence are part of everyday life. Life expectancy is 20 years less than in rich countries and education levels are low. Two thirds of Least Developed Countries (LDCs) are in […]
ABSTRACT: This work deals with the development of a system dynamics model for prevalence, prevention, and control of diabetes in Varanasi. The model was developed to explain the growth of diabetes since 2017 and portray possible future through 2050. The model simulations suggest characteristic dynamics of the diabetes population, including unintended increases in diabetes prevalence […]
