In an example for enteric pathogens, incidence of Escherichia coli O157 (STEC) colonization in cattle is consistently higher during warmer months compared to cooler months in various cattle production systems. However, actual mechanisms for this seasonality remain elusive. In addition, the influence of host (cattle) behavior on this pattern has not been thoroughly considered. To that end, we constructed a spatially explicit agent-based model that accounted for the effect of temperature fluctuations on cattle behavior (direct contact among cattle and indirect between cattle and environment), as well as its effect on pathogen survival in the environment. We then simulated the model in a factorial approach to evaluate the hypothesis that temperature fluctuations can lead to seasonal STEC transmission dynamics by influencing cattle aggregation, grazing, and drinking behaviors. Simulation results showed that higher temperatures increased the frequency at which cattle aggregated under shade in pasture, resulting in increased direct contact and transmission of STEC between individual cattle, and hence higher incidence over model simulations in the warm season. In contrast, increased drinking behavior during warm season was not an important transmission pathway. Although sensitivity analyses suggested that the relative importance of direct vs. indirect (environmental) pathways depend to upon model parameterization, model simulations indicated that factors influencing cattle aggregation, such as temperature, were likely strong drivers of transmission dynamics of enteric pathogens.}, number={10}, journal={PLOS ONE}, author={Dawson, Daniel E. and Keung, Jocelyn H. and Napoles, Monica G. and Vella, Michael R. and Chen, Shi and Sanderson, Michael W. and Lanzas, Cristina}, year={2018}, month={Oct} } @article{chen_lenhart_day_lee_dulin_lanzas_2018, title={Pathogen transfer through environment-host contact: an agent-based queueing theoretic framework}, volume={35}, ISSN={["1477-8602"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1093/imammb/dqx014}, DOI={10.1093/imammb/dqx014}, abstractNote={Queueing theory studies the properties of waiting queues and has been applied to investigate direct host-to-host transmitted disease dynamics, but its potential in modelling environmentally transmitted pathogens has not been fully explored. In this study, we provide a flexible and customizable queueing theory modelling framework with three major subroutines to study the in-hospital contact processes between environments and hosts and potential nosocomial pathogen transfer, where environments are servers and hosts are customers. Two types of servers with different parameters but the same utilization are investigated. We consider various forms of transfer functions that map contact duration to the amount of pathogen transfer based on existing literature. We propose a case study of simulated in-hospital contact processes and apply stochastic queues to analyse the amount of pathogen transfer under different transfer functions, and assume that pathogen amount decreases during the inter-arrival time. Different host behaviour (feedback and non-feedback) as well as initial pathogen distribution (whether in environment and/or in hosts) are also considered and simulated. We assess pathogen transfer and circulation under these various conditions and highlight the importance of the nonlinear interactions among contact processes, transfer functions and pathogen demography during the contact process. Our modelling framework can be readily extended to more complicated queueing networks to simulate more realistic situations by adjusting parameters such as the number and type of servers and customers, and adding extra subroutines.}, number={3}, journal={MATHEMATICAL MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY-A JOURNAL OF THE IMA}, author={Chen, Shi and Lenhart, Suzanne and Day, Judy D. and Lee, Chihoon and Dulin, Michael and Lanzas, Cristina}, year={2018}, month={Sep}, pages={409–425} } @article{nielsen_chen_fleischer_2017, title={Coupling developmental physiology, photoperiod, and temperature to model phenology and dynamics of an invasive Heteropteran, Halyomorpha halys (vol 7, 2016)}, volume={8}, journal={Frontiers in Physiology}, author={Nielsen, A.

We used real-time location system (RTLS) to accurately track cattle position, analyze their proximity networks, and tested the hypothesis of temporal stationarity and spatial homogeneity in these networks during different daily time periods and in different areas of the pen. The network structure was analyzed using global network characteristics (network density), subgroup clustering (modularity), triadic property (transitivity), and dyadic interactions (correlation coefficient from a quadratic assignment procedure) at hourly level. We demonstrated substantial spatial-temporal heterogeneity in these networks and potential link between indirect animal-environment contact and direct animal-animal contact. But such heterogeneity diminished if data were collected at lower spatial (aggregated at entire pen level) or temporal (aggregated at daily level) resolution. The network structure (described by the characteristics such as density, modularity, transitivity, etc.) also changed substantially at different time and locations. There were certain time (feeding) and location (hay) that the proximity network structures were more consistent based on the dyadic interaction analysis. These results reveal new insights for animal network structure and spatial-temporal dynamics, provide more accurate descriptions of animal social networks, and allow more accurate modeling of multiple (both direct and indirect) disease transmission pathways.}, number={6}, journal={PLOS ONE}, author={Chen, Shi and Ilany, Amiyaal and White, Brad J. and Sanderson, Michael W. and Lanzas, Cristina}, year={2015}, month={Jun} } @article{chen_fleischer_saunders_thomas_2015, title={The influence of diurnal temperature variation on degree-day accumulation and insect life history}, volume={10}, number={3}, journal={PLoS One}, author={Chen, S. and Fleischer, S.
