Symposium: Ecological and Evolutionary drivers of pathogen emergence

Organised by the Environment and Sustainability Institute (ESI) with the Centre for Ecology and Conservation (CEC).

Pathogen host shifts are a major source of emerging infectious diseases in humans, animals and plants. Despite the importance of understanding how pathogens are shared between hosts, there is still much to learn about the ecological and evolutionary drivers of pathogen emergence.

This two-day symposium will showcase the work being done by researchers from the University of Exeter and beyond providing an opportunity to discuss the cutting edge research with national and international colleagues.
