The image, depicting two models of New Rochelle, NY and two strains of the COVID-19 virus, is a representation of the collaborative work of Postdoctoral Associate Agnieszka Truszkowska (NYU, now at The University of Alabama in Huntsville), collaborators Lorenzo Zino (University of Groningen, now Polytechnic University of Turin), Prof. Sachit Butail (Northern Illinois University), Prof. Emanuele Caroppo (Universita Cattolica del Sacro Cuore), Prof. Zhong-Ping Jiang (NYU), Prof. Alessandro Rizzo (Polytechnic University of Turin), and Prof. Maurizio Porfiri (NYU). In their latest paper, they discuss the implications of the concurrent spread of two COVID-19 strains in the model town of New Rochelle, NY, building upon their previously published high-resolution agent-based model.
