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 (Gabon,
Republic of Congo, Tanzania, and Uganda) and Latin America
(Argentina and Mexico) and collaborate extensively with the
Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, the
Lincoln Park Zoo, and the
Wildlife Conservation
Society.
