An Antibiotic Protocol To Minimize Emergence Of Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis
de Espindola, Aquino L.; Girardi, Daniel; Penna, T. J. P.; Bauch, Chris T.; Troca Cabella, Brenno C.; Martinez, Alexandre Souto (Elsevier, 2014-04-15)A within-host model of the spread of tuberculosis is proposed here where the emergence of drug resistance and bacterial dormancy are simultaneously combined. We consider both sensitive and resistant strains of tuberculosis ... -
Assessing The Pandemic Potential Of Mers-Cov
Bauch, Chris T.; Oraby, Tamer (Elsevier, 2013-08-24)No Abstract Available -
Best response dynamics improve sustainability and equity outcomes in common-pool resources problems, compared to imitation dynamics
Farahbakhsh, Isaiah; Bauch, Chris T.; Anand, Madhur (Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2021-01-21)Shared resource extraction among profit-seeking individuals involves a tension between individual benefit and the collective well-being represented by the persistence of the resource. Many game theoretic models explore ... -
Bounded Rationality Alters The Dynamics Of Paediatric Immunization Acceptance
Oraby, Tamer; Bauch, Chris T. (Nature Publishing Group, 2015-06-02)Interactions between disease dynamics and vaccinating behavior have been explored in many coupled behavior-disease models. Cognitive effects such as risk perception, framing, and subjective probabilities of adverse events ... -
Carrot Or Stick? Modelling How Landowner Behavioural Responses Can Cause Incentive-Based Forest Governance To Backfire
Henderson, Kirsten A.; Anand, Madhur; Bauch, Chris T. (Public Library of Science, 2013-10-30)Mitigating the negative impacts of declining worldwide forest cover remains a significant socio-ecological challenge, due to the dominant role of human decision-making. Here we use a Markov chain model of land-use dynamics ... -
Coevolution Of Risk Perception, Sexual Behaviour, And Hiv Transmission In An Agent-Based Model
Tully, Stephen; Cojocaru, Monica; Bauch, Chris T. (Elsevier, 2013-11-21)Risk perception shapes individual behaviour, and is in turn shaped by the consequences of that behaviour. Here we explore this dynamics in the context of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) spread. We construct a simplified ... -
Comparing Influenza Vaccine Efficacy Against Mismatched And Matched Strains: A Systematic Review And Meta-Analysis
Tricco, Andrea C.; Chit, Ayman; Soobiah, Charlene; Hallett, David; Meier, Genevieve; Chen, Maggie H.; Tashkandi, Mariam; Bauch, Chris T.; Loeb, Mark (BioMed Central, 2013-06-25)Background: Influenza vaccines are most effective when the antigens in the vaccine match those of circulating strains. However, antigens contained in the vaccines do not always match circulating strains. In the present ... -
Competition Between Injunctive Social Norms And Conservation Priorities Gives Rise To Complex Dynamics In A Model Of Forest Growth And Opinion Dynamics
Sigdel, Ram P.; Anand, Madhur; Bauch, Chris T. (Elsevier, 2017-11-07)Human and environmental systems are often treated as existing in isolation from one another, whereas in fact they are often two parts of a single, coupled human-environment system. Developing theoretical models of coupled ... -
Convergence of socio-ecological dynamics in disparate ecological systems under strong coupling to human social systems
Sigdel, Ram P.; Anand, Madhur; Bauch, Chris T. (2018-04-06)It is widely recognized that coupled socio-ecological dynamics can be qualitatively different from the dynamics of social or ecological systems in isolation from one another. The influence of the type of ecological dynamics ... -
Cost-Effectiveness Evaluation Of Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccines For Seasonal Influenza Prevention: A Dynamic Modeling Study Of Canada And The United Kingdom
Thommes, Edward W.; Ismaila, Afisi; Chit, Ayman; Meier, Genevieve; Bauch, Chris T. (BioMed Central, 2015-10-27)Background: The adoption of quadrivalent influenza vaccine (QIV) to replace trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) in immunization programs is growing worldwide, thus helping to address the problem of influenza B lineage mismatch. ... -
Could The Human Papillomavirus Vaccines Drive Virulence Evolution?
Murall, Carmen Lia; Bauch, Chris T.; Day, Troy (Royal Society, The, 2015-01-07)The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines hold great promise for preventing several cancers caused by HPV infections. Yet little attention has been given to whether HPV could respond evolutionarily to the new selection ... -
Coupled Human-Environment Dynamics Of Forest Pest Spread And Control In A Multi-Patch, Stochastic Setting
Ali, Qasim; Bauch, Chris T.; Anand, Madhur (Public Library of Science, 2015-10-02)Background The transportation of camp firewood infested by non-native forest pests such as Asian long-horned beetle (ALB) and emerald ash borer (EAB) has severe impacts on North American forests. Once invasive forest pests ... -
Coupling Fishery Dynamics, Human Health And Social Learning In A Model Of Fish-Borne Pollution Exposure
Yodzis, Michael; Bauch, Chris T.; Anand, Madhur (Springer, 2016-03-01)Pollution-induced illnesses are caused by toxicants that result from human activity and are often entirely preventable. However, where industrial priorities have undermined responsible governance, exposed populations must ... -
Critical Dynamics In Population Vaccinating Behavior
Pananos, A. Demetri; Bury, Thomas M.; Wang, Clara; Schonfeld, Justin; Mohanty, Sharada P.; Nyhan, Brendan; Salathe, Marcel; Bauch, Chris T. (National Academy of Sciences, 2017-12-26)Vaccine refusal can lead to renewed outbreaks of previously eliminated diseases and even delay global eradication. Vaccinating decisions exemplify a complex, coupled system where vaccinating behavior and disease dynamics ... -
Disease Dynamics And Costly Punishment Can Foster Socially Imposed Monogamy
Bauch, Chris T.; McElreath, Richard (Nature Publishing Group, 2016-04-01)Socially imposed monogamy in humans is an evolutionary puzzle because it requires costly punishment by those who impose the norm. Moreover, most societies were-and are-polygynous; yet many larger human societies transitioned ... -
Disease Interventions Can Interfere With One Another Through Disease-Behaviour Interactions
Andrews, Michael A.; Bauch, Chris T. (Public Library of Science, 2015-06-01)Theoretical models of disease dynamics on networks can aid our understanding of how infectious diseases spread through a population. Models that incorporate decision-making mechanisms can furthermore capture how behaviour-driven ... -
Dynamics And Control Of Foot-And-Mouth Disease In Endemic Countries: A Pair Approximation Model
Ringa, Notice; Bauch, Chris T. (Elsevier, 2014-09-21)Previous mathematical models of spatial farm-to-farm transmission of foot and mouth disease (FMD) have explored the impacts of control measures such as culling and vaccination during a single outbreak in a country normally ... -
