Interplay of Ecology, Infectious Disease, Wildlife and Human Health Featured at Annual Conference
Description: West Nile virus, Lyme disease and hantavirus. All are infectious diseases spreading in animals and in people. Is human interaction with the environment somehow responsible for the increase in these diseases? The ecology and evolution of infectious diseases will be highlighted at two symposia at the Ecological Society of America's annual meeting. Scientists will discuss spillover of infectious diseases among wildlife, domestic animals and people. [Source: National Science Foundation]
