How it begins

Un tratado exhaustivo y riguroso sobre las fuerzas de transmisión biológica y determinantes sistémicos que gobiernan la salud de las poblaciones. Desde el modelamiento predictivo compartmental del número de reproducción reproductivo $R_0$ y la capacidad vectorial de Macdonald, hasta las complejas interacciones epigenéticas de la hipótesis de Barker, los sesgos analíticos de cribado oncológico y las técnicas…
