author keywords: Modeling; Data collection; Observational studies; Experimental studies
MeSH headings : Communicable Diseases / epidemiology; Communicable Diseases / transmission; Data Collection / methods; Epidemiologic Research Design; Humans; Models, Statistical; Observational Studies as Topic / methods
TL;DR:
A close marriage of dynamic modeling and empirical data collection is far from the norm in infectious disease research, and overcoming the challenges to using models to inform data collection has the potential to accelerate innovation and to improve practice in how the authors deal with infectious disease threats.

author keywords: Stochastic epidemics; Global transmission; Extinction; Genetic evolution; Endemicity
MeSH headings : Biological Evolution; Communicable Diseases / epidemiology; Communicable Diseases / transmission; Endemic Diseases / statistics & numerical data; Epidemics / statistics & numerical data; Extinction, Biological; Global Health / statistics & numerical data; Humans; Models, Statistical; Stochastic Processes
TL;DR:
The most basic stochastic epidemic models are those involving global transmission, meaning that infection rates depend only on the type and state of the individuals involved, and not on their location in the population.
