Contact networks and quantified transmission pathways (R0)
Research Question
- Identify and quantify transmission pathways inter and intra-species
Research Gaps and Challenges
- Establishing the Inter- and intra-species transmission dynamics
- Model systems or non-invasive ways to study intraspecies transmission
Solution Routes
- Transmission dynamics of influenza across major interfaces (e.g. wild, domestic, human, and environment), particularly between pigs and humans
- Interaction pathways between wild birds and poultry, and computational models of such pathways
- Increasing understanding of live poultry markets and related viral transmission dynamics
- Routes and patterns of avian influenza incursion into poultry holdings
- Factors that influence the spread/risk of HPAI along new bird migratory routes
- Propagation pathways of swine influenza between herds (e.g. live pig transport, airborne transmission, etc.)
Dependencies
- Virus datasets from various settings and conditions along with metadata
