A modelling perspective on mosquito infectiousness: time-varying transmission competence in arbovirus vector
Léa Loisel, Tristan Monrocq, Vincent Raquin +2
Mosquito vector competence is usually represented as a process in which once virus is detected in saliva, mosquitoes are assumed to remain infectious for life, implying an irrevers…

From lab to outbreak: experimental mosquito extrinsic incubation period distributions shape dengue epidemic dynamics
Léa Loisel, Sandie Arnoux, Gaël Beaunée +1
Dengue virus transmission models commonly assume an exponential distribution for the mosquito extrinsic incubation period (EIP), potentially oversimplifying biological variability.…

Within-vector viral dynamics challenges how to model the extrinsic incubation period for major arboviruses: dengue, Zika, and chikungunya
Léa Loisel, Vincent Raquin, Maxime Ratinier +2
Arboviruses represent a significant threat to human, animal, and plant health worldwide. To elucidate transmission, anticipate their spread and efficiently control them, mechanisti…
