Investigating Pathogens in Bird Communities
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of disease ecology in bird communities through this comprehensive lecture. Delve into the methods and techniques used to investigate pathogens in avian populations, gaining valuable insights into the complex interactions between birds, their environments, and disease-causing organisms. Learn how researchers study the distribution, prevalence, and dynamics of diseases in bird communities, and understand the importance of this research in the context of global health challenges and biodiversity conservation. Discover the latest sequencing techniques and data analysis methods used in avian pathogen research, and gain a deeper understanding of how ecological and environmental factors influence disease transmission in bird populations. This informative talk by Ashwin Warudkar provides a solid foundation for those interested in the intersection of ornithology, ecology, and epidemiology.
