Disease dynamics in metapopulations
Structured populations are of particular interest when discussing disease dynamics. A common approach is to consider metapopulations: a group of coupled, well-mixed patches (also called (sub)populations or households). Two, frequently used ways to realize coupling are to introduce between-patch contact rates and to allow migration. Although these two ways describe different real-life situations...
متن کاملCryptosporidium: from Molecules to Disease
This dictionary of pathogenic microorganisms, published by the American Society for Microbiology, is simple and useful. This book is divided in four sections, bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. Each organism is presented alphabetically in its section. Older names are mentioned and connected with current names. A brief bibliography is also provided at the end of each chapter. The emergence...
متن کاملGeographical variation in selection, from phenotypes to molecules.
Molecular technologies now allow researchers to isolate quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and measure patterns of gene sequence variation within chromosomal regions containing important polymorphisms. I develop a simulation model to investigate gene sequence evolution within genomic regions that harbor QTLs. The QTLs influence a trait experiencing geographical variation in selection, which is comm...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولSpatial Simulations in Systems Biology: From Molecules to Cells
Cells are highly organized objects containing millions of molecules. Each biomolecule has a specific shape in order to interact with others in the complex machinery. Spatial dynamics emerge in this system on length and time scales which can not yet be modeled with full atomic detail. This review gives an overview of methods which can be used to simulate the complete cell at least with molecular...
