Reaction–diffusion equations in immunology

The paper is devoted to the recent works on reaction–diffusion models of virus infection dynamics in human and animal organisms. Various regimes of infection propagation in tissues are described. In particular, it is shown that infection can spread in tissues of organs as a reaction–diffusion wave. Methods for studying the conditions of the existence of wave modes of the time and space dynamics of infections is discussed. © Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2018.
