Multiscale modeling in disease

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Systems Biology, 2021
Multiscale computational modeling aims to connect the complex networks of effects at different length and/or time scales. For example, these networks often include intracellular molecular signaling, crosstalk, and other interactions between neighboring cell populations, and higher levels of emergent phenomena across different regions of tissues and ...

Preventing a cluster from becoming a new wave in settings with zero community COVID-19 cases

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background In settings with zero community transmission, any new SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks are likely to be the result of random incursions. The level of restrictions in place at the time of the incursion is likely to considerably affect possible outbreak ...
