Pathogen Evolution in the Context of Host and Environmental Adaptation

International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube

Overview

Explore the intricate dynamics of pathogen evolution in relation to host and environmental adaptation in this comprehensive 1-hour 22-minute lecture by Niyaz Ahmed. Delve into the complex interplay between pathogens, their hosts, and the surrounding environment as part of the "Emerging Infectious Diseases: Ecology and Evolution" program organized by the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Gain valuable insights into how ecological and environmental processes influence disease distribution, prevalence, and dynamics in animal populations. Examine the fundamental principles of disease ecology, including pathogen biology, host population dynamics, and environmental factors that shape disease outbreaks. Learn about the application of sequencing techniques and data analysis in understanding and managing infectious diseases. Discover how changes in biodiversity and habitat degradation contribute to the emergence of new infections and their impact on public health. Enhance your understanding of the interdisciplinary nature of disease ecology, drawing from fields such as ecology, evolution, and mathematics to address real-world challenges in global health.
