This study uses a model to show that disease dynamics during ecosystem restoration depend on pathogen transmissibility, timing of slow life history species establishment, and community assembly, not just biodiversity.

This study identifies H5 influenza virus infections in vampire bats, showing their potential to spread the virus between marine and terrestrial ecosystems.

This study finds higher prevalence of Calodium hepatica in areas with lower small mammal diversity, particularly linked to increased Rattus rattus presence in Eastern Uganda.

The paper develops a multi-scale statistical model to predict Hendra virus shedding in black flying foxes by integrating environmental and host condition factors across spatial and temporal scales.

This study uses target enrichment sequencing to assess viral load and diversity in wildlife samples, showing a log-linear relationship between spike-in concentration and read depth.
