Abstract

This chapter introduces and studies multiscale nested immuno-epidemiological models. The chapter begins with brief introduction to within-host dynamics and within-host modeling. Then the chapter introduces nested immuno-epidemiological models. The first model studied is a nested SI model of HIV. Using data, the chapter argues that the transmission rate is not a linear function of the viral load. The epidemiological reproduction number and prevalence of HIV are derived and studied in terms of the within-host viral load. In addition, a nested immuno-epidemiological model with immune response in the within-host model is introduced and studied.
