Why infectious disease research needs community ecology.
Infectious diseases often emerge from interactions among multiple species and across nested levels of biological organization. Threats as diverse as Ebola virus, human malaria, and bat white-nose syndrome illustrate the need for a mechanistic understanding of the ecological interactions underlying emerging infections. We describe how recent advances in community ecology can be adopted to addres...
متن کاملNetwork based models of infectious disease spread.
It has recently become possible to simulate directly dynamics on very large networks. This paper describes a model of epidemiology on a social network, the Epidemiological Simulation System (EpiSims), and offers general speculation on analyzing disease dynamics on networks. We describe the process of building a realistic social network, describe several different definitions of the network, eac...

متن کاملNetwork Perspectives on Infectious Disease Dynamics
Over the last two decades, network perspectives have become ubiquitous in the life sciences, ranging from the consideration of microscopic molecular networks to macroscopic social interaction networks. These perspectives have provided new insights into the patterns and processes that we, as scientists, aim to understand. They have also encouraged the development of new mathematical and statisti...
متن کاملNetwork structural dynamics and infectious disease propagation.
We aimed to relate dynamic changes in risk-network (sex and/or injecting drug) structure to observe STD/HIV transmission. We analysed macro- and micro-structural elements in 2 heterosexual networks, augmented by ethnographic observations. In a Colorado cohort of injecting drug users (n = 595), measures of subgroup formation and of density of activity show decrease of network cohesion over time;...
