Evidence of repeated zoonotic pathogen spillover events at ecological boundaries
Anthropogenic modifications to the landscape have altered several ecological processes worldwide, creating new ecological boundaries at the human/wildlife interface. Outbreaks of zoonotic pathogens often occur at these ecological boundaries, but the mechanisms behind new emergences remain drastically understudied. Here, we test for the influence of two types of ecosystem boundaries on spillover risk: (1) biotic transition zones such as species ra…
The mismatch of narratives and local ecologies in the everyday governance of water access and mosquito control in an urbanizing community
Socio‐ecological dynamics in urban systems
Urban environments are heterogeneous landscapes of social and environmental features, with important consequences for human–nature entanglements, such as that of mosquito‐borne disease. Investigations into this intra‐urban heterogeneity in mosquito dynamics find conflicting results, likely due to the complex socio‐ecological interactions and the importance of place‐based context. Integrative research, which synthesizes multiple disciplines and ep…
A Data-driven Horizon Scan of Bacterial Pathogens at the Wildlife–livestock Interface
Integrating Health Systems and Science to Respond to Covid-19 in a Model District of Rural Madagascar
There are many outstanding questions about how to control the global COVID-19 pandemic. The information void has been especially stark in the World Health Organization Africa Region, which has low per capita reported cases, low testing rates, low access to therapeutic drugs, and has the longest wait for vaccines. As with all disease, the central challenge in responding to COVID-19 is that it requires integrating complex health systems that incorp…
Reconciling model predictions with low reported cases of Covid-19 in Sub-Saharan Africa
COVID-19 has wreaked havoc globally with particular concerns for sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where models suggest that the majority of the population will become infected. Conventional wisdom suggests that the continent will bear a higher burden of COVID-19 for the same reasons it suffers from other infectious diseases: ecology, socio-economic conditions, lack of water and sanitation infrastructure, and weak health systems. However, so far SSA has …
