cystiSim-package {cystiSim}

Agent-based model for Taenia solium transmission and control.

Description

The cystiSim model allows simulating Taenia solium taeniosis/cysticercosis transmission in a virtual population of humans and pigs. It also allows evaluating the possible effects of human mass drug administration, pig mass drug administration, and pig vaccination. cystiSim was developed within the framework of CYSTINET, the European Network on taeniosis/cysticercosis, COST ACTION TD1302 (http://www.cystinet.org/).
