Learning infectious disease epidemiology in a modern framework.

The article describes the R software package called Dynamical Systems Approaches to Infectious Disease Epidemiology (DSAIDE) that allows individuals to explore and study concepts of infectious disease epidemiology using a modern computational and modeling approach. It describes the DSAIDE software package and the ways for students to interact with the software through the graphical user interface, via simulation functions, and by contributing to the package and developing applications.
