  • Species distribution modeling for disease ecology

    Open AccessAlyson L Singleton, Caroline K Glidden et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Species distribution models (SDMs) are increasingly popular tools for profiling disease risk in ecology, particularly for infectious diseases of public health importance that include an obligate non-human host in their transmission cycle. SDMs can create high-resolution maps of host distribution across geographical scales, reflecting baseline risk of disease. However, as SDM computational methods have rapidly expanded, there are many outstanding …

  • Climatic, land-use and socio-economic factors can predict malaria dynamics at fine spatial scales relevant to local health actors

    Open AccessJulie D Pourtois, Krti Tallam et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    While much progress has been achieved over the last decades, malaria surveillance and control remain a challenge in countries with limited health care access and resources. High-resolution predictions of malaria incidence using routine surveillance data could represent a powerful tool to health practitioners by targeting malaria control activities where and when they are most needed. Here, we investigate the predictors of spatio-temporal malaria …

  • Environmental Persistence of the World's Most Burdensome Infectious and Parasitic Diseases

    Open AccessSkylar Hopkins, Skylar R Hopkins et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Humans live in complex socio-ecological systems where we interact with parasites and pathogens that spend time in abiotic and biotic environmental reservoirs (e.g., water, air, soil, other vertebrate hosts, vectors, intermediate hosts). Through a synthesis of published literature, we reviewed the life cycles and environmental persistence of 150 parasites and pathogens tracked by the World Health Organization's Global Burden of Disease study. We u…

  • Three reasons why expanded use of natural enemy solutions may offer sustainable control of human infections

    Open AccessIsabel J Jones, Susanne H Sokolow et al.ARTICLEPeople and Nature2022

    Many infectious pathogens spend a significant portion of their life cycles in the environment or in animal hosts, where ecological interactions with natural enemies may influence pathogen transmission to people. Yet, our understanding of natural enemy opportunities for human disease control is lacking, despite widespread uptake and success of natural enemy solutions for pest and parasite management in agriculture. Here we explore three reasons wh…

  • Identification of Snails and Schistosoma of Medical Importance via Convolutional Neural Networks

    Open AccessKrti Tallam, Zac Yung-Chun Liu et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2021

    In recent decades, computer vision has proven remarkably effective in addressing diverse issues in public health, from determining the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of diseases in humans to predicting infectious disease outbreaks. Here, we investigate whether convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can also demonstrate effectiveness in classifying the environmental stages of parasites of public health importance and their invertebrate hosts. W…

  • Addressing Climate Change and Its Effects on Human Health

    Anna Goshua, Jason Gomez et al.ARTICLEAcademic Medicine2021

    Human health is increasingly threatened by rapid and widespread changes in the environment and climate, including rising temperatures, air and water pollution, disease vector migration, floods, and droughts. In the United States, many medical schools, the American Medical Association, and the National Academy of Sciences have published calls for physicians and physicians-in-training to develop a basic knowledge of the science of climate change an…

  • How to identify win–win interventions that benefit human health and conservation

  • Emerging human infectious diseases and the links to global food production

    Open AccessJason R Rohr, Christopher B Barrett et al.ARTICLENature Sustainability2019Citada por: 30Referências: 3

    Infectious diseases are emerging globally at an unprecedented rate while global food demand is projected to increase sharply by 2100. Here, we synthesize the pathways by which projected agricultural expansion and intensification will influence human infectious diseases and how human infectious diseases might likewise affect food production and distribution. Feeding 11 billion people will require substantial increases in crop and animal production…
