Relative rate and location of intra-host HIV evolution to evade cellular immunity are predictable
HIV evolves within infected persons to escape being destroyed by the immune system. Here, Barton et al. combine evolutionary dynamics and statistical physics to simulate this process, successfully predicting the relative rate and location of escape mutations in viral sequences for a cohort of HIV-in...
