This research investigates how changes in human mobility patterns affect the dynamics of pathogens that spread through contact. Using mathematical models, it aims to understand the relationship between host movement and pathogen virulence, with applications to diseases like meningococcal disease.
Pathogens that spread by contact between hosts are highly dependent on the social and spatial contact network of the host population.
For human societies, this contact network has dramatically changed over the last century, for instance because of long-distance air travel.
In this project, the effects of changes in host mobility patterns on pathogen dynamics will be explored.
In particular, the effect of increased host mobility on pathogen virulence (i.e. pathogen-induced loss of host fitness) w…
