Event details
The effect of the wind in the recent spread of the novel Schmallenberg virus in North Europe
One of the Geography and Environment department's newest staff members,
Dr Luigi Sedda
, will be presenting some of his recent work on the spread of livestock disease (Schmallenberg) over Europe via wind dispersal.
These meetings are intended for everyone with an interest in disease ecology, spatial epidemiology and the types of spatial analysis and modelling methods that may be used in this field. There will also be a lot of relevance in some of our meetings for researchers in similar fields (e.g. species distribution modelling, health geography).
All are welcome to join us - it's a great opportunity to get together and discuss on-going research, methods, conferences, publications and more in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. Feel free to bring your lunch.
