Park Sang Woo

Park Sang Woo is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Seoul National University. His research focuses on infectious disease modeling, utilizing mathematical and statistical methods to understand the dynamics of pathogen communities. He investigates how immunological, virological, and environmental factors influence these dynamics and how interventions such as vaccination or climate change might affect future pathogen communities. Park's work integrates serological and genomic data to infer infectious disease dynamics. He holds a Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from Princeton University and a BSc in Mathematics and Statistics from McMaster University. He joined Seoul National University in 2025.

Sang Woo Park is a researcher at Seoul National University with expertise in ecology, evolution, and epidemiology. His work focuses on understanding the dynamics of infectious diseases, particularly in the context of pandemics such as COVID-19. Park's research explores how nonpharmaceutical interventions, such as social distancing, affect the spread of endemic infections and epidemic dynamics. He also investigates the role of behavioral changes, generation intervals, and serial intervals in shaping epidemic growth and control strategies. His studies contribute to developing mathematical models that guide public health responses to emerging infectious diseases.
