Between-host Virulence Evolution

Between-Host Virulence Evolution is a theoretical framework in evolutionary epidemiology that explains the selection and transmission-mediated optimization of pathogen virulence traits across individual hosts within a population, distinguishing it from within-host mechanisms by focusing on inter-host dynamics and fitness trade-offs.
