Carla N Mavian
My research aims at understanding the eco-evolutionary pathways that lead to emergence and dispersal of zoonotic and human pathogens, with emphasis on land use and climate change, within the One Health approach. I employ genomics, metagenomics and phylodynamics as tools to elucidate the evolutionary processes and population dynamics that shape viral genetic diversity both at the inter-host (epidemics) and in intra-host level (individual infections).
