Mission
Generating new knowledge and modeling the ecological-environmental factors affecting the emergence and spread of zoonoses.
Applied Ecology
The research is focused on the concept of One Health and EcoHealth, promoting the concept that human health is strictly dependent on the health of plants, animals and the environment.
Innovation and methods
A multidisciplinary approach is applied, from field studies on population ecology and host-parasite interactions, to the analysis of big data to produce predictive models of zoonotic disease risk (in collaboration with: the Animal, Environmental and Antique DNA Platform, Computational Biology Unit).
