Building a model from comparison of SARS-CoV-2 viral dynamics model proposed since 2020: what are the main differences?
Introduction: Several mathematical models have been used to characterize viral kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 since 2020. While models may commence with…
Read moreNLME modelling from a causal inference perspective when the dose-exposure-response relationship is confounded by the treatment regimen
Introduction: When a clinical trial is designed to investigate the effects of a treatment regimen rather than of specific dose…

Introduction/Objectives: For women living with chronic inflammatory diseases, adequate disease control during pregnancy is crucial to ensure the best fetal…
Read moreModelling framework to simulate phenotypic results of antiviral PROTACs
Objectives: Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTAC) are novel chemical concepts taking advantage of the proteasome to degrade target proteins. Compared to PROTACs…
Read moreModeling the influence of antiretroviral treatment initiation time on post-treatment control of HIV infection
Objectives: The current standard of care for HIV infection involves antiretroviral therapy (ART) [1]. ART is not curative and treatment…
