In this presentation we will talk about how by applying signal detection and classification techniques to manatee vocalizations we can identify them. We will see how using LoRa technology we can monitor them in real time. In addition, we will talk about how all this engineering can help save the West Indian manatee.

Webinar in Spanish We have recently witnessed the phenomenon of the pandemic due to (COVID-19), one of the main factors for its spread is the interactions between the thousands of those involved, therefore, it is a phenomenon that can be studied with the focus of science of complexity. Here we present a computational model, supported by agents, and a set of simple heuristic rules. A simulation of the dynamics of spread of an infectious disease, which can be either COVID-19 or any other with similar characteristics.

We will learn about the methods that epidemiologists use to analyze epidemics, in this case applied to COVID. From data collection, data analysis and scientific communication to modify regulations or educate the community. This is epidemiology for non-epidemiologists. Lecturer: Dr. Arturo Rebollón Epidemiologist and Public Health Strategist (Panama) Time: 16h30 - 17h30 GMT-5 Registration Deadline: July 14, 2020 (19:00 GMT-5)
An introduction to blockchain technology will be made, explaining the beginning of the technology with Bitcoin, its operation and the main characteristics of the blockchain.
