To establish a formal definition of the per-exposure effect of infectious disease interventions and define the conditions required for its unbiased estimation.
Built upon the methodological frameworks of Halloran and Struchiner (1995) to formalize per-exposure intervention parameters.
Evaluated the implicit assumptions and mathematical conditions required to achieve unbiased estimation across populations with differential pathogen exposure.
Demonstrated that conventional per-exposure metrics often depend on unstated, implicit assumptions regarding exposure distributions and transmission dynamics.
Defined formal criteria necessary to obtain unbiased per-exposure estimates for parameterizing simulations that project averted disease burden.
