Jeramy Townsley will present “Socioeconomic Structural Predictors of 1st Wave COVID-19 in New York City (Spatial Regression Model)” at the Jan. 22 IU School of Informatics and Computing BioHealth Informatics Colloquia Series. New York City was one of the first cities to be affected by COVID-19 in the United States, and as of April, was the worst hit U.S. city.
