Blood thicker than water: Kinship, disease prevalence and group size drive divergent patterns of infection risk in a social mammal [PDF]
, 2016 The importance of social- and kin-structuring of populations for the transmission of wildlife disease is widely assumed but poorly described. Social structure can help dilute risks of transmission for group members, and is relatively easy to measure, but
