    ..Finally, the dynamic equations provide an alternative way of determining the epidemic threshold where large-scale epidemics are expected to occur, and below which epidemic behavior is limited to finite-sized outbreaks...

    Proc Biol Sci 274:2925-33. 2007
    ..Using epidemiological and sexual contact data from an Atlanta high school, we demonstrate the application of this method for forecasting and controlling sexually transmitted disease outbreaks...

    Integrative Biology, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712, USA
    J R Soc Interface 6:233-41. 2009
    ..We show that social mixing fundamentally changes the epidemiological landscape and, consequently, that static network approximations of dynamic networks can be inadequate...
