Convergence Research for Emerging Zoonoses

Benoit Talbot et al. Trends Parasitol. 2021 Jun.

Abstract

Global emergence of vector-borne and zoonotic diseases presents a rapidly growing 'wicked' problem. We outline the need for a transdisciplinary research program that is grounded in ecological and evolutionary theory but integrates fundamentally with research perspectives spanning the health, social, and natural sciences.

Keywords: Lyme borreliosis; consilience; disease ecology; emerging disciplines; transdisciplinary research.
