An early correspondent wrote: "It will come as no surprise to anyone to learn that Mark Woolhouse is a
disciple of Anderson's - used to work with him at Oxford - and is another
non-vet biomathematical modeller.

 

Prof David King, Chief Scientist, has always made out that the Woolhouse
team (who are the others on his team? Are there any?) at Edinburgh was
independent - but I have it on good authority that he's been using the
Anderson model and that they've been working essentially 'in league/in
tandem' all along."
