A Review Of Mathematical Models For Hiv/Aids Vaccination

This chapter first summarizes results of recent vaccine trials. Then we present structures and results of selected mathematical models for prophylactic (non-live-attenuated and live-attenuated) and therapeutic HIV/AIDS vaccines. Finally, important modeling considerations and discussions are provided. The purpose of this chapter is not to emphasize the usefulness of mathematical modeling, but to provide modelers a good collection of various types of deterministic models and discussions concerning differences among the models.
