"Trained as a conservation geneticist, my research interests have evolved to incorporate how landscape context influences movement patterns and disease dynamics of terrestrial vertebrates. Broadly, I am interested in how human impacts on the landscape alter ecosystem function. Using a combination of field and laboratory techniques, my lab seeks to understand how host populations maintain reservoirs of pathogens in a changing landscape. Invasive species and vector-borne diseases can be excellent model systems to study, because they are particularly sensitive to these alterations and in turn serve as catalysts for changes in ecosystem function. We use this approach to study disease systems in threatened and endangered species, at the livestock/wildlife interface, and for wildlife diseases that are threats to human health." "The Cervidae Health Research Initiative (CHeRI) is a state-funded liaison between the Florida deer farm industry and the University of Florida. The mission of CHeRI is to promote interdisciplinary science, education, and outreach that increase the health and production of captive cervids in a sustainable manner and promotes the health of native wildlife and the ecosystems in which they live. My role as Director is to ensure that the research mission reflects the needs of the producers, that the information produced from the research is widely available to the producers, and that excellent scientists and extension specialists are trained in wildlife health." https://wec.ifas.ufl.edu/cheri/ This podcast is built around real-world experience, collaboration with producers and veterinarians, and nearly three decades of hands-on work across North America.
