Extracting the time-dependent transmission rate from infection data via solution of an inverse ODE problem [PDF]

, 2012
The transmission rate of many acute infectious diseases varies significantly in time, but the underlying mechanisms are usually uncertain. They may include seasonal changes in the environment, contact rate, immune system response, etc.

Vertical transmission of chronic wasting disease in free-ranging white-tailed deer populations

Scientific Reports
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease affecting cervids across North America, Northern Europe, and Asia. Disease transmission among cervids has historically been attributed to direct animal-to-animal contact with ‘secreta ...

Networks and the epidemiology of infectious disease [PDF]

, 2011
The science of networks has revolutionised research into the dynamics of interacting elements. It could be argued that epidemiology in particular has embraced the potential of network theory more than any other discipline. Here we review the growing body

A Bayesian inference framework to reconstruct transmission trees using epidemiological and genetic data [PDF]

, 2012
The accurate identification of the route of transmission taken by an infectious agent through a host population is critical to understanding its epidemiology and informing measures for its control. However, reconstruction of transmission routes during an
