Research in the Gillespie Lab focuses on interactions among anthropogenic environmental change; biodiversity; and the ecology and emergence of pathogens of people, wildlife, and domestic animals. We take an integrative interdisciplinary approach in our active research projects in Africa and Latin America and collaborate extensively with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Lincoln Park Zoo, and the Wildlife Conservation Society.
