Abstract. Viral kinetics provide crucial insights into the biology and epidemiology of infections, with direct implications for basic science, therapeutics

Background: Serological data provide important insights into SARS-CoV-2 transmission and immunity, particularly in regions with limited routine surveillance suc

Key findings England is currently experiencing a high growth rate of infections caused by the influenza A/H3N2 K clade. Antigenic change from the previously dominant clade, a rapid selective sweep evi...

Seasonal influenza (‘the flu’) is an acute respiratory infection caused by influenza viruses that circulate globally and year-round. It can cause illness ranging from mild to severe, sometimes resulti...

Author summary Understanding how viruses reproduce within an infected host is crucial for predicting disease progression and evaluating treatments. One way to study this is by using mathematical model...

Population-level distributions of SARS-CoV-2 viral load can correlate with epidemic trends. Here, the authors use viral loads to nowcast epidemic growth rates over two-week periods and investigate how...

The `serojump` package provides tools for fitting serological models to antibody kinetics data using reversible-jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo (RJ-MCMC). It enables researchers to model the dynamics of...

Mass testing to identify and isolate infected individuals is a promising approach for reducing harm from the next acute respiratory virus pandemic. It…
