Environmental Ecology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that unravels the ecology of pathogenic microorganisms in animals and the environment in order to prevent infectious diseases.
AboutAbout the lab
Reading pathogens in the environment through ecology.
The Environmental Ecology Lab is a field within the Division of Environmental Coexistence at the Center for Southeast Asian Studies, and it accepts students through the School of Public Health in the Graduate School of Medicine.
Various pathogenic microorganisms in the environment cause infectious diseases, and epidemics of infectious diseases affect society and bring about change.
Much remains unknown about how pathogens emerge in the environment, including inside the bodies of animals, and what ecology they have; the lab uses ecological methods to analyze the relationships between individual pathogenic microorganisms and the various factors involved in infectious diseases.
