The researchers will work on solutions to mitigate Batrachochytrium Salamandrivorans disease spread among captive and wild amphibian populations.Researchers with Michigan State University and pet industry partners will work to study disease mitigation strategies that will hopefully minimize the risk of disease spread among captive amphibian and wild amphibian populations.The project, “Socioeconomic and Epidemiological Drivers of Pathogen Dynamics in Wildlife Trade Networks,” is led by Michigan State University Wildlife Engagement Specialist Alexa Warwick and MSU Department of Fisheries and Wildlife Master’s Student Gia Haddock and including researchers from the University of Tennessee, Washington State University, University of Massachusetts and Rutgers University will collaborate on identifying how “socioeconomic” decisions and pathogen dynamics impact each other in a wildlife trade network and partnering with industry leaders to support application and implementation of pathogen screening, reporting and networking programs.”
