Drake Lab is now on Mastadon ([email protected]) and Blue Sky (jdrakephd.bsky.social). See you there!
I am pleased to announce an independent postdoctoral opportunity at the Center for the Ecology of Infectious Diseases. Proposals/applications are due November 1, 2023. Applications can be made online at ugajobsearch.com/postings/34…. Additional information at ceid.uga.edu/2023/10/11/ceid…
Excited to share that our latest on #epidemic #TippingPoints is out in #NonlinearDynamics: "Anticipating epidemic transitions in metapopulations with multivariate spectral similarity" link.springer.com/article/10…

@UGAEcology’s @drake_lab is building a Japanese encephalitis virus infectious disease model to explain how this virus is expected to spread after it’s introduced into the U.S.

We're hiring! Two-year salaried postdoc position with research interests complementary to those of the school, or science communication, the intersection of ecological and social systems, or conservation policy.

How might decision-makers intervene in future epidemics, especially at the early stages of outbreak when so little is known?
Our latest paper "Deep Spatial Q-Learning for Infectious Disease Control" provides a new model-free algorithm

Is there a repository of projection matrices for ecology? I vaguely remember a paper from a few years ago that analyzed a bunch of different Leslie/Lefcovich matrices and probably had them all in the supplement, but can’t put my finger on it. There must be several!
Well deserved! Congratulations Rico, Scott, and Nicole!

Great lecture on global change and vector borne diseases at the Center for the Ecology of Infectious Diseases today by @morde. Thanks, Erin!
An #interdisciplinary conversation with great colleagues at #UGA about severe weather and emerging diseases. Our thoughts in @Ecology_Letters doi.org/10.1111/ele.14188
Have any parasitologists or disease ecologists compiled a database of the many published macroparasite burden distributions? It seems like a great way to explore new ideas in the #macroecology of host-parasite interactions. Anybody interested in helping out?
