Aflood of visitors to an Irish exhibition about epidemics has become a mother lode of data on the spread of disease. On 17 April, the Science Gallery at Trinity College Dublin launched an exhibit called INFECTIOUS. To give visitors a firsthand feel for “epidemic processes,” everyone gets a radio-frequency identification tag. Tags are initially “uninfected” but can get “infected” by proximity to “infected” staff or visitors. A computer tracks everyone, mapping the spread of the infection. The timing turned out to be propitious. Soon after the opening, swine flu panic hit. “We’ve had an amazing response,” with more than 13,000 visitors so far, says gallery director Michael John Gorman. The data are flowing to computers in Italy, where epidemiologists at the Institute for Scientific Interchange Foundation in Turin are modeling epidemics. The experiment “does seem to address human-to-human contact at the most local level, which is the least well understood of organizational scales,” says Oliver Pybus, an epidemiologist at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom.
