Phylogeography and Biological Characterizations of H12 Influenza A Viruses
Viruses, 2022 Influenza A virus (IAV) is widespread in wild bird reservoirs. Sixteen hemagglutinin subtypes are associated with wild waterfowl hosts; some subtypes are isolated infrequently, one of which is H12 IAV.

Phylodynamic applications in 21st century global infectious disease research
Global Health Research and Policy, 2017 Background Phylodynamics, the study of the interaction between epidemiological and pathogen evolutionary processes within and among populations, was originally defined in the context of rapidly evolving viruses and used to characterize transmission ...

Phylodynamic of HCV Populations
Annals of the Russian academy of medical sciences, 2015 Hepatitis C virus is an actual public health problem worldwide since its discovering in 1989. It is explained not only by the wide spreading andfrequent adverse outcomes of disease, the lack of effective preventive vaccine, but also by the high genetic variability of the virus.

Phylodynamics on local sexual contact networks [PDF]
PLOS Computational Biology, 2016 Abstract Phylodynamic models are widely used in infectious disease epidemiology to infer the dynamics and structure of pathogen populations. However, these models generally assume that individual hosts contact one another at random, ignoring the fact that many pathogens spread through highly structured contact networks. We present a new
