Interactive interface for exploring epidemic behavior in the seed network

The following link goes to an interactive Shiny interface designed by Y. Xing, C. E. Buddenhagen, and K. A. Garrett, for exploring the potential for epidemic spread in the Ecuadorian potato seed system analyzed by Buddenhagen, Hernandez Nopsa et al (2017).  Evaluating potential disease spread is the first step in evaluating the role of individual nodes for sampling or mitigating disease.
