The importance of including dynamic social networks when modeling epidemics of airborne infections: does increasing complexity increase accuracy?

Mathematical models are useful tools for understanding and predicting epidemics. A recent innovative modeling study by Stehle and colleagues addressed the issue of how complex models need to be to ensure accuracy. The authors collected data on face-to-face contacts during a two-day conference. They...
