Présentation
Statistical and Mathematical Modeling in Biological Applications — SaMMBA
The seminar series Statistical and Mathematical Modeling in Biological Applications (SaMMBA) features monthly lectures and discussions with leading modelers in biological sciences. Presentations are in English or French and target an interdisciplinary audience. Seminars are held on the campus of Institut Pasteur. Access is free. However, to enter the campus, one needs a badge that is obtained at the main gate in exchange of a piece of ID (passport, citizen card or driver licence). If you are planning to come from outside the campus, please contact Lulla Opatowski to have a badge ready when you arrive.
For additional information about the series, contact the organizers: Pierre-Yves Böelle, Romulus Breban, Vittoria Colizza, Judith Legrand, Lulla Opatowski, Chiara Poletto, Virginie Supervie, Laura Temime and Elisabeta Vergu. To arrange to meet with an invited speaker, contact the host of that speaker.
The SaMMBA seminars received financial support from the ANRS, the region Ile de France through the DIM Systèmes complexes, from Inserm and the department MIA of INRA. It is now funded by the region Ile de France through the DIM One health, and the Inception program, Institut Pasteur.

Inferring epidemiological links from deep sequencing data with a statistical learning approach Abstract:
Pathogen sequence data have been exploited to infer who infected whom, by using empirical and model-based approaches. Most of these approaches exploit one pathogen sequence per infected host (e.g. individual, household, field). However, modern sequencing techniques can reveal the polymorphic nature of within-host populations of pathogens. Thus, these techniques provide a subsample of the pathogen variants that were present in the host at the sampling time. Such data are expected to give more insight on epidemiological links than a single sequence per host. Relying on this assumption, we have developed a statistical learning approach whose idea consists of (i) learning the structure of epidemiological links with a pseudo-evolutionary model applied to training data obtained from contact tracing, for example, and (ii) using this initial stage to infer links for the whole dataset. In this talk, we will present the approach and illustrate its application in different contexts from animal, human and plant epidemiology.
