Network epidemic models offer a framework to describe livestock populations. Specifically, the way in which animals interact over time and how those interactions influence the transmission of infectious diseases. An important aspect of improving the rate at which farmers comply with disease control recommendations requires an understanding of how individual behaviour influences the animal contact network over time. This research program will apply a network framework to research questions of high priority for agricultural livestock systems and will permit the identification of network-based disease prevention and control strategies to improve animal health.

网络流行病模型提供了一个框架来描述牲畜种群。具体而言，动物随着时间的推移相互作用的方式以及这些相互作用如何影响传染病的传播。提高农民遵守疾病控制建议的速度的一个重要方面需要了解个人行为如何随着时间的推移影响动物接触网络。该研究计划将应用网络框架来研究农业畜牧系统的高优先级问题，并将允许确定基于网络的疾病预防和控制策略，以改善动物健康。
