Modelling Aedes albopictus management, incorporating immigration and bi-directional Wolbachia interactions

Matthew Ryan, Manuela Mendiolar, Dan Pagendam, Roslyn I. Hickson et autres

Abstract Aedes albopictus mosquitoes are competent vectors for the spread of at least 24 different arboviruses, including dengue, Ross River, and Japanese encephalitis viruses. However, they remain less studied than their more urban cousins, Aedes aegypti . We model an incompatible insect …

Lifestyle behavioural and socio-demographic predictors of distress and wellbeing among Australian adults

Edward J. O’Connor, Matthew Ryan, Emily Brindal, Ian Zajac et autres

Lifestyle behaviours including physical activity (PA), dietary intake, and sleep are increasingly prominent targets in preventive mental health research and practice. Nevertheless, previous studies have typically adopted a model of mental health that discounts the potential for psychological distress and mental wellbeing …

Face mask mandates alter major determinants of adherence to protective health behaviours in Australia

Matthew Ryan, Jian-Gang Ye, Justin Sexton, Roslyn I. Hickson et autres

Face mask wearing is a protective health behaviour that helps mitigate the spread of infectious diseases such as influenza and COVID-19. Understanding predictors of face mask wearing can help refine public health messaging and policy in future pandemics. Government mandates influence face …

Behaviour and infection feedback loops inform early-stage behaviour emergence and the efficacy of interventions

Matthew Ryan, Emily Brindal, Roslyn I. Hickson

This paper is part of a special issue on Behavioural Epidemiology.The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the health and economic impacts of infectious diseases. Many public health policies aim to reduce these impacts, including non-pharmaceutical interventions such as face mask wearing and social distancing. …

Integrating human behaviour and epidemiological modelling: unlocking the remaining challenges

Edward M. Hill, Matthew Ryan, David Haw, MichaelF. Lynch et autres

This paper is part of a special issue on Behavioural Epidemiology.Historically, responses to health-related emergencies (whether public health, veterinary health or plant health related) have exposed the deficiencies of mathematical models to incorporate data-driven and/or theoretical knowledge on outbreak behavioural dynamics. Interdisciplinary …

A behaviour and disease transmission model: incorporating the Health Belief Model for human behaviour into a simple transmission model

Matthew Ryan, Emily Brindal, M. G. Roberts, Roslyn I. Hickson

The health and economic impacts of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 affect all levels of a community from the individual to the governing bodies. However, the spread of an infectious disease is intricately linked to the behaviour of the people within a …

Capturing functional connectomics using Riemannian partial least squares

Matthew Ryan, Gary Glonek, Jonathan Tuke, Melissa Humphries

For neurological disorders and diseases, functional and anatomical connectomes of the human brain can be used to better inform targeted interventions and treatment strategies. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive neuroimaging technique that captures spatio-temporal brain function through change in …

The power of effective study design in animal experimentation: Exploring the statistical and ethical implications of asking multiple questions of a data set

Rachel A. Ankeny, Alexandra L. Whittaker, Matthew Ryan, Jennifer C. Boer et autres

One of the chief advantages of using highly standardised biological models including model organisms is that multiple variables can be precisely controlled so that the variable of interest is more easily studied. However, such an approach often obscures effects in sub-populations resulting …
