New preprint out ⚠️
In this work, we investigate the ability of Neural Posterior Estimation (NPE) to perform Bayesian inference over mechanistic transmission models in contexts where the likelihood function is unknown.

Our latest @PoultryHub work, led by @mcdupas and @g_fournie, is finally out in @PLOSCompBiol 🥳🥳🥳 Link to the paper and explanatory blog post below!
📢New publication! 📢
A new algorithm to generate realistic poultry farm distributions will help public health policymakers better understand disease spread.

This is a super opportunity if you are interested in developing mathematical modelling of infectious diseases, individual-based models and/or phylodynamics, with direct implications for the management of zoonotic pathogens in poultry farming and trading networks!

Research warning over avian influenza trading threat
"Academics in the UK, Europe and Asia have joined forces to urge greater efforts to prevent transmission in live bird markets"

Importantly, this work rests on some really impressive data collection work carried out by Lisa Kohnle. If you are interested in the details behind the dataset and her work, have a look at this preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

A blog post by @PoultryHub on our recent publication in @PLOSCompBiol. I am particularly proud of this piece of work and I am even happier to finally share it widely. This tool will help us understanding how poultry production systems affect the way bugs like avian flu spread.

New paper out on the dynamics of dengue before and after the emergence of Zika virus (ZIKV) in Brazil.
Previous work found that temporary cross-protection induced by ZIKV during the 2015-16 outbreak can explain the low levels of dengue circulation in 2017-18.

Here we further investigate dengue epidemiology after it resurged in 2019, and show that some form of disease enhancement is required to explain age patterns in dengue incidence data.

As well as two works on modelling H9N2 avian influenza virus transmission in Bangladeshi live bird markets and on developing a general framework to study pathogen spread in poultry trade networks w/ @PoultryHub (preprints at researchsquare.com/article/r… & biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…) 2/2

I'm so happy to see this out! It was a pleasure to be part of this collaboration 🦟🐒🇧🇷🌳💉
Our collaborative efforts in Brazil show that combining genomics with eco-epidemiology can enhance traditional infectious disease surveillance and control! @LourencoJML @lalcan40 @vagnerf0nseca @edwardcholmes! Today on Science Advances: science.org/doi/epdf/10.1126…
