In this video, I talk to Aniruddha Belsare about the complexity of disease ecology. Aniruddha Belsare is an Assistant Professor of Disease Ecology at Auburn University. He is interested in disease systems that have conservation or public health implications, specifically emerging and novel pathogens e.g., chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cervids, amphibian chytridiomycosis; zoonoses e.g., West Nile virus, baylisascariasis (raccoon roundworms), leptospirosis, rabies; and pathogen spillover at the human-domestic-wildlife interface e.g., Kyasanur Forest Disease, SARS-CoV-2, bighorn sheep pneumonia, canine distemper. His approach combines ecologic, epidemiologic, and model-based investigations to understand how pathogens spread through, persist in, and impact host populations.
