Julien Arino is a Professor with the Department of Mathematics at the University of Manitoba and a member of the (informal) Mathematical Biology group.

His research is in mathematical biology, with particular focus on the role of movement in epidemiology and epizootiology. As part of his work, he has become more and more interested in data scientific aspects.

Julien teaches mathematical modelling and mathematical epidemiology in a variety of settings and have recorded some lectures in that context, which he posts to his YouTube channel.
