Measuring human behavior and ecological dimensions of pathogen transmission for outbreak control and prevention

This project proposes interdisciplinary research across biology and geography to examine links between human-environment interactions, spatiotemporal patterns of human mobility and health geographies, and endemic and emerging infectious diseases. This work focuses on measles and Ebola prevention and management in the Équateur province in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where both pathogens cause significant morbidity and mortality. Recurring outbreaks emphasize an urgent need for significant public health improvements. This research investigates the mechanisms underlying pathogen transmission and identifies epidemiological units, across which transmission occurs, and measure their…
