The paper shows that density-dependent population regulation can lead to greater population suppression during the endemic phase than during the initial epidemic.

This study evaluates the tobacco hornworm as a model for bacterial virulence, showing dose-dependent mortality, secreted product effects, and dynamic bacterial distribution in infected larvae.

This study uses computational models to identify phage properties predictive of treatment success in phage therapy, finding adsorption rate and growth rate are most informative.

The paper uses epidemiological models to show that maternal antibodies and density-dependent regulation influence long-term host population suppression by novel pathogens, with outcomes sensitive to factors like R0 and virulence.

This paper develops standardized, low-cost methods for rearing Manduca sexta larvae in a lab setting, facilitating their use in physiological and pathogen studies.

The paper explains how waning immunity drives antigenic evolution in respiratory viruses through repeated emergence and replacement of immune escape variants.

The paper investigates how codon deoptimization in bacteriophage T7 reduces protein expression and viral fitness by halving translation of key genes.
