Evolution of Virulence in Emerging Epidemics: From Theory to Experimental Evolution and Back

2024-03-14

Abstract excerpt

The experimental validation of theoretical predictions is a crucial step in demonstrating the predictive power of a model. While quantitative validations are common in infectious diseases epidemiology, experimental microbiology primarily focuses on the evaluation of a qualitative match between model predictions and experiments. In this study, we develop a method to deepen the quantitative validation process with a...
