Nonequilibrium antigen recognition during infections and vaccinations
Roberto Morán-Tovar, Michael Lässig
The immune response to an acute primary infection is a coupled process of antigen proliferation, molecular recognition by naive B cells, and their subsequent proliferation and anti…
Stochasticity of infectious outbreaks and consequences for optimal interventions
Roberto Morán-Tovar, Henning Gruell, Florian Klein +1
Global strategies to contain a pandemic, such as social distancing and protective measures, are designed to reduce the overall transmission rate between individuals. Despite such m…
Antigenic waves of virus-immune co-evolution
Jacopo Marchi, Michael Lässig, Aleksandra M. Walczak +1
The evolution of many microbes and pathogens, including circulating viruses such as seasonal influenza, is driven by immune pressure from the host population. In turn, the immune s…
Adaptive evolution of hybrid bacteria by horizontal gene transfer
Jeffrey J. Power, Fernanda Pinheiro, Simone Pompei +6
Horizontal gene transfer is an important factor in bacterial evolution that can act across species boundaries. Yet, we know little about rate and genomic targets of cross-lineage g…
