Domenech de Cellès lab
@domenech-lab.bsky.social
A research group at @mpiib.bsky.social, led by Matthieu Domenech de Cellès, focused on vaccines, interactions, and the seasonality of infectious diseases. Website: https://www.mpiib-berlin.mpg.de/1953092/Infectious-Disease-Epidemiology
Honored to join the Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) Working Group on pertussis vaccines. Together with a dozen other colleagues, we will support the WHO by reviewing scientific evidence and drafting recommendations on pertussis vaccines. www.who.int/groups/strat...
Pertussis Vaccines
In the light of the resurgence of pertussis and the related increase in infant mortality in some countries a SAGE Working Group on Pertussis Vaccines was established.

Natural immune boosting biases pertussis infection estimates in seroprevalence studies - Nature Communications
Estimating rates of pertussis infections is challenging due to the large proportion of asymptomatic infections and lack of a reliable serological correlate of protection. Here, the authors develop a t...

Massive congratulations to the new Dr. Laura Barrero Guevara (@labarreroguevara.bsky.social), who successfully defended her PhD on causal inference and infectious diseases yesterday, with summa cum laude!! Check out her work here rdcu.be/ewCNj and here doi.org/10.1093/infd... 🥳🎉
How does weather affect the transmission of #infectiousdiseases, and how can we predict the effects of #climatechange on them? Our new article in @natureportfolio.bsky.social Ecology & Evolution explores these questions using #causalinference and #transmissionmodels. See the 🧵for more! (1/10)

When should children get vaccinated against #measles? Is there an optimal age? If so, what affects this optimal age? In our new #NatureComms paper, led by @egoult.bsky.social, we explore these questions using #mathematicalmodeling: rdcu.be/d0ktY. Read the 🧵 for a summary of our findings 👇 (1/8)
Estimating the optimal age for infant measles vaccination
Nature Communications - Measles remains a significant public health concern despite the availability of a vaccine. Here, the authors use mathematical modelling to assess the optimal age group for...
