DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/CompMath/36/
 ">Why build categorical models?</a>\nby Tim Hosgood (Topos Institute) as p
 art of Relatorium seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThere are two claims I'd like to 
 explore: (1) building a formal categorical model is useful and also comple
 x (2) building a formal categorical model is made considerably easier with
  the right tools. I'll walk through a story from earlier this year about a
  collaborative workshop with the Center for Analysis and Prediction of Pan
 demic Expansion and what it looks like to build a categorical model to rec
 over a system of ODEs from an immuno-epidemiological model.\n\nThis talk w
 ill be moderated by Ted Theodosopoulos.\n\nSpeaker's bio: Tim is a researc
 her at the Topos Institute with a background in higher category theory and
  complex geometry. He is now Social Impact Lead\, working on understanding
  how the work we do as mathematicians can positively shape the world aroun
 d us.\n\n\nModerator's bio: Ted is a mathematician who\, after working for
  years in academia and industry\, transitioned to teaching at the pre-coll
 ege level sixteen years ago\, the last nine at Nueva\, where he teaches ma
 th and economics. Ted’s research background is in the area of interactin
 g stochastic systems\, with particular applications in biology and economi
 cs.\n
