Research Background
• The research procedure for this study involves a multi-step approach to harness the
potential of agent-based modeling (ABM) in addressing intricate population health
challenges.
• Data collection sources, including existing health data and literature, are specified
and prepared for ABM integration.
• The agent-based model is developed, with a focus on defining parameters,
calibrating the model, and simulating agent interactions that account for the
multifaceted determinants of population health.
• Additionally, the study emphasizes the importance of a collaborative network like
PHASE and open-source tools in promoting ABM adoption and facilitating
community support among agent-based modelers in the realm of population health
research.
Research Method
Social care in the UK is a complex issue affected by various factors. Using Agent-Based
Modeling (ABM), policymakers can test intricate social care policies before
implementation, considering potential spillover effects on care provision, costs, and
informal carers' well-being.
Developing ABM simulations for health and social care requires an iterative approach
involving stakeholder input. Modellers gradually construct a framework that can
simulate detailed policy decisions, allowing policymakers to assess possible emergent
effects.
The PHASE Project aims to reduce entry barriers for new ABM modellers in population
health. It offers source code, documentation, guidance, and training opportunities,
facilitating collaboration between modellers and policymakers to influence real-world
policies and promote wider ABM adoption in the population health community.
