活动时间: 06月14日09时00分
地 点 : 生命科学学院科研楼A110室
讲座内容:
Our team has been building an international perspective on the interplay between disease systems, ecosystem processes, land use, and human behaviors. Surveillance systems following the One Health approach with a regional perspective will help identifying opportunities to mitigate the health burden of those diseases on human and animal populations. Our research team is mostly interested in Lyme diseases together with some ricketsial diseases such as Ehrlichia canis, E. chaffeensis and Rickettsia rickettsii infections. In this presentation I will provide information regarding the current efforts in place to evaluate the prevalence of infected ticks and reservoir host with the pathogens mentioned above in the transboundary region.
