Cross-scale dynamics and the evolutionary emergence of infectious diseases

2016-07-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> When emerging pathogens encounter new host species for which they are poorly adapted, they must evolve to escape extinction. Pathogens experience selection on traits at multiple scales, including replication rates within host individuals and transmissibility between hosts. We analyze a stochastic model linking pathogen growth and competition within individuals to transmission between indivi...
