Crowdsourcing real-time viral disease and pest information. A case of nation-wide cassava disease surveillance in a developing country [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 In most developing countries, a huge proportion of the national food basket is supported by small subsistence agricultural systems. A major challenge to these systems is disease and pest attacks which have a devastating effect on the smallholder farmers that depend on these systems for their livelihoods.

The role of tunable activation thresholds in the dynamics of autoimmunity [PDF]
J. Theor. Biol. 308, 45-55 (2012), 2012 It has been known for some time that human autoimmune diseases can be triggered by viral infections. Several possible mechanisms of interactions between a virus and immune system have been analysed, with a prevailing opinion being that the onset of autoimmunity can in many cases be attributed to "molecular mimicry", where linear peptide epitopes ...
