The beginning of the end (part 2)
A second paper of our work at the Santa Fe Institute Complex System Summer School, entitled Pathogen Mutation Modeled by Competition Between Site and Bond Percolation , was published today in Physical Review Letters. We examine the effect of pathogen mutation (induced by selective pressure from treatment) on the phase transition at the epidemic threshold. Head over to the PRL website to have a look!

The beginning of the end of CSSS '12 (?)
New projects are moving forward and old projects are coming to an end. The first of our papers written during the Santa Fe Institute Complex System Summer School (2012) has been published. Most interesting result? If antiviral treatment of influenza favours emergence of resistance, random treatment has a better optimal scenario (smaller epidemic) than targetted treatment on high degree nodes. Head over to the publication page for more details or jump straight to the paper .

Once more into the fray
Antoine Allard and I will be leaving once again for Santa Fe in early December for the 2nd International Conference on Complex Sciences. I will be presenting preliminary results of my research on the growth of critical systems and Antoine will be presenting some results of Jean-Gabriel Young’s ongoing effort in community detection .

Out of office for summer
I will be leaving for the Santa Fe Institute’s Complex System Summer School in a few days. This might be a good moment to mention that Antoine Allard’s and Pierre-André Noël’s latest papers have been published in EPL and Phys. Rev. E (respectively), see publications section for more details. On a side note, we still have a few manuscripts in submission and I am hard at work on two very different project to mark the beginning of my Ph.D. To be continued…
