Linking tree shapes to the spread of infection using generalised branching processes

In this work we look at the shapes of pathogen phylogenetic trees derived from the the spread of an infection. The mathematical framework is the general Crump-Mode-Jager branching process. In an exploratory, simulation study we look at how memory affects the general shape of the tree. By general sha...
