A guide to modeling plasmid co-infection dynamics

Berit Siedentop, Jana S. Huisman, Claudia Igler

Mobile genetic elements like conjugative plasmids play a crucial role in shaping the genetic content and population dynamics of bacterial species. Bacterial populations often conta…

Fluid flow generates bacterial conjugation hotspots by increasing the rate of shear-driven cell-cell encounters

Matti Zbinden, Jana S. Huisman, Natasha Blitvic +2

Conjugation accelerates bacterial evolution by enabling bacteria to acquire genes horizontally from their neighbors. Plasmid donors must physically encounter and connect with recip…

Generative Bayesian modeling to nowcast the effective reproduction number from line list data with missing symptom onset dates

Adrian Lison, Sam Abbott, Jana Huisman +1

The time-varying effective reproduction number is a widely used indicator of transmission dynamics during infectious disease outbreaks. Timely estimates of can be obtai…

Guidelines for the estimation and reporting of plasmid conjugation rates

Olivia Kosterlitz, Jana S. Huisman

Conjugation is a central characteristic of plasmid biology and an important mechanism of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria. However, there is little consensus on how to accurate…

COVID-19 infectivity profile correction

Peter Ashcroft, Jana S. Huisman, Sonja Lehtinen +4

The infectivity profile of an individual with COVID-19 is attributed to the paper Temporal dynamics in viral shedding and transmissibility of COVID-19 by He et al., published in Na…
