    Snippet: Finally, given the centrality of dynamic epidemic models to containment of outbreaks, policy formulation and response logistics, modeling tools are needed that can be used by healthcare professionals not trained in computational methods to carry out containment policy, and response analyses. Thus, our strong focus is on how to use the Numerus Model Builder and demonstrate its use to address these issues in the context of epidemics that are spatia.....
    Document: Finally, given the centrality of dynamic epidemic models to containment of outbreaks, policy formulation and response logistics, modeling tools are needed that can be used by healthcare professionals not trained in computational methods to carry out containment policy, and response analyses. Thus, our strong focus is on how to use the Numerus Model Builder and demonstrate its use to address these issues in the context of epidemics that are spatially structured, such as the recent outbreak of Ebola in West Africa [16, 17] .
