Workshop: Impacts of dormancy and latency on host parasite dynamics
Dates: May 16-20, 2022
Venue: HIM lecture hall, Poppelsdorfer Allee 45, Bonn
Organizers: Cornelia Pokalyuk (Frankfurt)
Description:
The phenomenon of dormancy has lately been of great interest for biologists and mathematicians. It appears to be ubiquitous among the tree of life and comes with plenty implications for medical therapy, for example in immune escape and antibiotic resistance.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together mathematicians, biologists and virologists whose research is relevant for studying the effects of dormancy on host-parasite evolution. The program includes talks on empirical observations of host parasite systems driven by dormancy, in particular, on the specificity of latency in herpesviruses, talks on stochastic models that study dormancy in interaction with other evolutionary forces, as well as on statistical methods to infer traces of dormancy in data.
