How do ecological interactions and food web structure influence infectious disease dynamics in freshwater environments? The lab investigates ecology of infectious disease and food web interactions to understand how community composition and trophic structure affect pathogen transmission. Researchers perform field studies and community ecology experiments to measure host-pathogen interactions, trophic cascades, and dilution or amplification effects across life stages. The group examines ontogenetic shifts, host demography, and spatial processes to link individual-level susceptibility with population-level disease outcomes. Lab projects integrate observational datasets, manipulative experiments, and ecological theory to predict disease risk across freshwater systems.
