The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is one of the most threatening viral agents. This
virus infects approximately 33 million people, many of whom are unaware of their status …

Viral production from infected cells can occur continuously or in a burst that generally kills
the cell. For HIV infection, both modes of production have been suggested. Standard viral …

The events that occur following HIV exposure, preceding any detectable infection, are
difficult to study experimentally. However, there is considerable evidence that these events …

The potential of broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting the HIV-1 envelope trimer to
prevent HIV-1 transmission has opened new avenues for therapies and vaccines. However …

The envelope glycoproteins (Envs) of HIV-1 continuously evolve in the host by random
mutations and recombination events. The resulting diversity of Env variants circulating in the …

Background Respiratory viral infections are a leading cause of mortality worldwide. As many
as 40% of patients hospitalized with influenza-like illness are reported to be infected with …

Not every exposure to virus establishes infection in the host; instead, the small amount of
initial virus could become extinct due to stochastic events. Different diseases and routes of …

ABSTRACT HIV-1 group M was transmitted to humans nearly one century ago. The virus
has since evolved to form distinct clades, which spread to different regions of the world. The …

We use a simple mathematical model to estimate the probability and its time dependence
that one or more HIV virions successfully infect target cells. For the transfer of a given …

In this paper, we present a stochastic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with logistic
hepatocyte growth. We show that the stochastic differential equation (SDE) HBV model has …
