Insights from Modeling Epidemics of Infectious Diseases - A Literature Review
The relevance of modeling epidemics’ spread goes beyond the academic. The mathematical understanding of infectious diseases has become an important tool in policy making. Our research interest is modeling of dynamics in crisis situations. This paper explores the extant body of literature of mathematical models in epidemiology, with particular emphasis on theories and methodologies used beyond t...
متن کاملPhylodynamics of infectious disease epidemics.
We present a formalism for unifying the inference of population size from genetic sequences and mathematical models of infectious disease in populations. Virus phylogenies have been used in many recent studies to infer properties of epidemics. These approaches rely on coalescent models that may not be appropriate for infectious diseases. We account for phylogenetic patterns of viruses in suscep...
متن کاملRussia's drug policy fuels infectious disease epidemics.
On Feb 3, 2012, the Russian Government blocked the website of the Andrey Rylkov Foundation for Health and Social Justice. The reason, according to the Federal Drugs Control Service, was the website’s “placement of materials that propagandize (advertise) the use of drugs, information about distribution, purchasing of drugs and inciting the use of drugs”. The drug in question was methadone, which...
متن کاملExtracting Information about Outbreaks of Infectious Epidemics
This work demonstrates the ProMEDPLUS Epidemiological Fact Base. The facts are automatically extracted from plain-text reports about outbreaks of infectious epidemics around the world. The system collects new reports, extracts new facts, and updates the database, in real time. The extracted database is available on-line through a Web server.
متن کاملModeling Measles Epidemics
Several aspects of alginate and PHB synthesis in Azotobacter vinelandii at a molecular level have been elucidated in articles published during the last ten years. It is now clear that alginate and PHB synthesis are under a very complex genetic control. Genetic modification of A. vinelandii has produced a number of very interesting mutants which have particular traits for alginate production. On...
