About this course
Infectious diseases are serious threats to global public health. Patient-based and epidemiological approaches to managing infectious diseases have shown tremendous success as well as serious limitations (e.g., inability to predict pathogen emergence, virulence, or resistance evolution). The study of infectious disease evolutionary ecology promises to remedy some of these limitations. This course will introduce students to the major ecological and evolutionary principles governing pathogen biology.
