DESA: An R Package for Detecting Epidemics Using a School-Absenteeism Surveillance Framework

Journal of Open Research Software
Absenteeism among elementary school children has proven useful for early detection of influenza epidemics within a population. This paper presents Detecting Epidemics from School Absenteeism (DESA), an R package developed to: (1) model epidemics using ...

Short-term forecasts and long-term mitigation evaluations for the COVID-19 epidemic in Hubei Province, China

Infectious Disease Modelling, 2020
As an emerging infectious disease, the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has developed into a global pandemic. During the initial spreading of the virus in China, we demonstrated the ensemble Kalman filter performed well as a short-term predictor of ...

From Markovian to pairwise epidemic models and the performance of moment closure approximations [PDF]

, 2011
Many if not all models of disease transmission on networks can be linked to the exact state-based Markovian formulation. However the large number of equations for any system of realistic size limits their applicability to small populations.

Renal Clearable Luminogenic Reporter for Ultrasensitive Influenza Virus Imaging and Efficient Antiviral Therapies Monitoring in Living Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A viral luminogenic reporter with chemiluminescence/fluorescence dual‐response and efficient renal clearance was developed for non‐invasive imaging and urinalysis of H1N1 virus protease, allowing for remote detection of H1N1 virus infections and monitoring of antiviral therapeutic efficacy in living mice.

A theoretical framework for agent-based modelling of infectious disease dynamics under misinformation and vaccine hesitancy

Радіоелектронні і комп'ютерні системи
The relevance of this study stems from the growing importance of modelling not only the biological transmission of infectious diseases but also the behavioural and informational factors that shape real-world epidemic dynamics. The subject of the research

The COVID-19 pandemic preparedness simulation tool: CovidSIM

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Efficient control and management in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic needs to carefully balance economical and realizable interventions. Simulation models can play a cardinal role in forecasting possible scenarios to sustain decision support ...

Lipidomic Profile Reconstruction of Therapeutic Membrane Targets Using Physics‐Based Optimization with Limited Activity Data

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a minimal set of experimentally labeled antimicrobial and non‐antimicrobial peptides, we reconstruct the effective lipid composition of a pathogenic membrane ‐demonstrated at the example of bacterial membranes‐ through a physics‐based evolutionary molecular dynamics (Evo‐MD) approach. Optimization based on peptide insertion reveals broad‐spectrum

Decoding Viral Transmission Dynamics in Structured Populations Using a Microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip Platform

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip experimentally recreates structured contact networks to quantify viral transmission dynamics. By controlling susceptible, infected, and non‐susceptible populations, the platform reveals how contact topology governs the reproduction number, outbreak propagation, herd‐immunity–like behavior, and intervention ...
