Fluscape

Immune Landscapes of Human Influenza in Households, Towns, and Cities in Southern China

The goal of Fluscape is to characterize the immunological profiles to human influenza in space and time of individuals residing in the Guangzhou Province, China, and to capture the transmission dynamics contributing to those observed immunological distributions through computational models.
