DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3866
Abstract: Plants modulate multitrophic ecological interactions, and variation in plant traits can affect these interactions. Pollinators are exposed to pathogens at flowers and acquire or transmit pathogens at different rates on different plant species, but the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2018.05.016
Abstract: Pathogen transmission is a key process in epidemiology and its mathematical form plays a pivotal role when modeling pathogen spread. Much work has been devoted to the transmission function applied to a homogeneous population structure.… read more here.

Bare Below the Elbows: A Randomized Trial to Determine Whether Wearing Short-Sleeved Coats Reduces the Risk for Pathogen Transmission
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Open Forum Infectious Diseases"
DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofx162.084
Abstract: Abstract Background Physician’s white coats are frequently contaminated, but seldom cleaned. Therefore, in the UK, a “bare below the elbows” dress code policy includes a recommendation that personnel wear short sleeves. However, it has not… read more here.

regentrans: a framework and R package for using genomics to study regional pathogen transmission
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Microbial Genomics"
DOI: 10.1099/mgen.0.000747
Abstract: Increasing evidence of regional pathogen transmission networks highlights the importance of investigating the dissemination of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) across a region to identify where transmission is occurring and how pathogens move across regions. We developed… read more here.

Large scale systemic control short‐circuits pathogen transmission by interrupting the sand rat (Psammomys obesus)‐to‐sand fly (Phlebotomus papatasi) Leishmania major transmission cycle
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Medical and Veterinary Entomology"
DOI: 10.1111/mve.12608
Abstract: Systemic control uses the vertebrate hosts of zoonotic pathogens as “Trojan horses,” killing blood‐feeding female vectors and short‐circuiting host‐to‐vector pathogen transmission. Previous studies focused only on the effect of systemic control on vector abundance at… read more here.
