2011-Gaff-Lenhart-Use of optimal control models to predict treatment time for managing tick-borne disease
Tick-borne diseases have been on the rise recently, and correspondingly, there is an increased interest in implementing control measures to decrease the risk. Optimal control provides an ideal tool to identify the best method for reducing risk.
