Cancer disease: integrative modelling approaches [PDF]
Cancer is a complex disease in which a variety of phenomena interact over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. In this article a theoretical framework will be introduced that is capable of linking together such processes to produce a detailed ...

Effects of regional differences and demography in modelling foot-and-mouth disease in cattle at the national scale [PDF]
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a fast-spreading viral infection that can produce large and costly outbreaks in livestock populations. Transmission occurs at multiple spatial scales, as can the actions used to control outbreaks. The US cattle industry is

Disease Mapping via Negative Binomial Regression M-quantiles [PDF]
We introduce a semi-parametric approach to ecological regression for disease mapping, based on modelling the regression M-quantiles of a Negative Binomial variable. The proposed method is robust to outliers in the model covariates, including those due to

Multiscale modeling in disease
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 ...
