We illustrate a method for delaying and possibly eliminating the evolution of non-responsiveness to the treatments now used to control pest populations.

A two-phase two-layer model for transdermal drug delivery and percutaneous absorption
One of the promising frontiers of bioengineering is the controlled release of a therapeuticdrug from a vehicle across the skin (transdermal drug delivery).

BOOL-AN: A method for comparative sequence analysis and phylogenetic reconstruction [PDF]
A novel discrete mathematical approach is proposed as an additional tool for molecular systematics which does not require prior statistical assumptions concerning the evolutionary process.

On the dynamics of a class of multi-group models for vector-borne diseases [PDF]
The resurgence of vector-borne diseases is an increasing public health concern, and there is a need for a better understanding of their dynamics. For a number of diseases, e.g.

Shaping Polyclonal Responses via Antigen-Mediated Antibody Interference
Summary: Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) recognize conserved features of rapidly mutating pathogens and confer universal protection, but they emerge rarely in natural infection.

Heterogeneous social interactions and the COVID-19 lockdown outcome in a multi-group SEIR model
We study variants of the SEIR model for interpreting some qualitative features of the statistics of the Covid-19 epidemic in France. Standard SEIR models distinguish essentially two regimes: either the disease is controlled and the number of infected ...

Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...

Combined assessment of MHC binding and antigen abundance improves T cell epitope predictions
Summary: Many steps of the MHC class I antigen processing pathway can be predicted using computational methods. Here we show that epitope predictions can be further improved by considering abundance levels of peptides' source proteins.

Pathogen evolution in switching environments: a hybrid dynamical system approach
We propose a hybrid dynamical system approach to model the evolution of a pathogen that experiences different selective pressures according to a stochastic process.

Dynamic phenomena arising from an extended Core Group model [PDF]
In order to obtain a reasonably accurate model for the spread of a particular infectious disease through a population, it may be necessary for this model to possess some degree of structural complexity.
