Summary
| Description |
English: The potential of diseases such as Avian Influenza (bird flu) to spread rapidly world-wide has accelerated research on zoonoses—diseases that are transmitted between animals and humans. Plans to investigate and either prevent or control such disease outbreaks involve coordination of standardized animal and human health data; increased collaboration among veterinarians, doctors, and wildlife biologists; as well as the development of early warning systems.
At USGS, we examine the effects of environmental factors on disease pathways of zoonotic and vector-borne disease, and provide crucial connections for understanding the interrelatedness of disease emergence in all animals and people. We also examine the relationship between human-induced environmental change, such as pollution and habitat loss, and disease transmission dynamics.
