Making contagion social:Epidemiology, calculus and the theory of happenings [PDF]
The beginnings of formal epidemiology are conventionally marked by the introduction of mathematical modelling in the early 20th century. However, Ronald Ross, colonial medical officer and 1902 Nobel laureate for his proof of the insect vector of malaria,

Quantifying the Effects of Contact Tracing, Testing, and Containment [PDF]
, 2020 Contact tracing has the potential to help identify, characterize, and predict disease-spreading human interactions at an unprecedented resolution. However, to realize this potential, we need to utilize data-driven epidemic models that can operate at a ...

Response of 'Merlot' (Vitis vinifera) grapevine to defoliation caused by downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) during the following growing season [PDF]
, 2015 The downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) epidemics on leaf canopy during the ripening phase causes a stress situation for the grapevine. The plant compensates the carbohydrate request of the berries mobilising the carbohydrate reserves stored in the woody ...
