Zoonotic diseases pose a significant global health challenge. Learn about how these illnesses are transmitted between animals and humans, and discover effective strategies to safeguard ourselves.
One Health: Recognizing the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. Explore its history and modern applications in combating diseases and ensuring global health
MDPI’s spammy practices are ruining academic publishing standards. I deeply regret my past publications with them and vow never to submit there again. It’s time we demand integrity in scientific publishing
Very fun PhD opportunity, working on animal memory. 🧠🔍🪰
Come join us!
Come do a PhD with Sinead English @englishse.bsky.social , Dan Padfield @padpadpadpad.bsky.social and me on Gulls! GPS- and Bluetooth-tracking! Microbiomes & AMR acquisition & transmission! Human-wildlife conflict & mitigation! should be fun :-)
Six people in California reported infection with Rocky Mountain spotted fever, all of whom had visited Tecate, Mexico, just prior. Yale School of Public Health's Peter Krause warns people to steer clear of tick-invested vegetation.
Cool!
DRC Expects Diagnosis of ‘Disease X’ by Weekend; Mpox Continues to Spread
An unknown disease in the DRC has caused 376 cases and 79 deaths, with children most affected. Symptoms include fever, cough, anemia, and breathing issues.
This highlights the urgent need for stronger global health systems to detect and contain emerging threats.

Its pretty awesome costume! I would love to be in this seminar 😎
I was hoping the scientific community would be more proactive in defending @ecohealthnyc. Their work is critical for understanding zoonotic diseases and preventing pandemics, yet they seem to face criticism without enough support. We need to stand up for science

Made a starter package for vector-borne disease folks! Please feel free to comment if you'd like to be added or see somebody missing. This is just the start and grabbed as many as I could quickly find! 🦟 go.bsky.app/U8D4FV2
Just to give everyone a reminder: you should never have to get a loan for a graduate program in ecology, evolution, & organismal biology.

Outside of work, you’ll often find me fishing or relaxing by the shores of Lake Mendota, soaking in the tranquility and inspiration that nature offers
I’m a veterinarian and disease ecologist with 10 years’ experience in global health security, infectious disease surveillance, and outbreak response. My work focuses on spillover events from wildlife, bridging One Health research and capacity building to prevent future pandemics
Hi, everyone! I’m a Wildlife Ecology PhD student at UW-Madison, studying disease ecology, host behavior, and pathogen transmission. My work focuses on Chronic Wasting Disease, zoonotic diseases, and One Health. Passionate about wildlife, global health equity, and pandemic prevention!
Pinning the EcoEvo job board so I’ll no longer have a reason to revisit the blue bird website.
