Abstract: We present a model for dengue fever. We interface a model of development for mosquitoes comprising eggs, larvae and adult female with a SEIR model for human hosts. This model is inspired from the models of Dumont 2008 [3, 11]. This model is then applied to a metapopulation model. In the first place we describe the concept of metapopulation models. Metapopulations models applied to dengue are rather scarce in literature [1, 9, 10]. The problem of modeling human movement is addressed and what has been done in preceding literature is summarized.
