Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Human influenza viruses mutate from time to time, causing annual epidemics worldwide. Given the high mutation rate of the viral gene, influenza vaccine strains need to be updated every two to three years. In order to prepare an effective vaccine strain prior to each influenza season, we investigated text data assimilation methods that allow us to predict the evolution of viral amino acid sequences. As a result, we developed a mathematical model consisting of human herd immunity, the number of infections, and population of circulating vires. The model provides a mathematical basis of bioinformatics methods to prepare an effective vaccine strain prior to influenza seasons.
