Integrating infection intensity and aggregation into the dynamics of pathogens with within‐host replication

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1686-1698, September 2026.
We bridge micro‐ and macroparasite theory with a model tracking pathogen load heterogeneity. By incorporating load‐dependent mortality and within‐host pathogen growth, we show how pathogen load aggregation alters disease prevalence, host suppression effects, and virulence evolution, providing insights for managing complex infectious disease like ...

Surface Composition and Temperature Interact to Shape Viral Survival and Growth

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
Environmental surface type and temperature interact synergistically to shape viral survival and reproduction. Using bacteriophages T4 and φX174 on copper, steel and plastic at different temperatures, we demonstrate that survival and reproductive capacity are partially decoupled traits, with copper at 37°C causing rapid viral inactivation while their ...
