2015 EEID Conference Program_Final
Welcome to the 2015 Conference on the Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases Hosted by the University of Georgia Athens, GA 26-29 May, 2015 Sponsored by About Our Sponsors The University of Georgia has over 107 faculty conducting infectious disease research. The Faculty of Infectious Diseases spans eight schools and colleges at UGA, creating a consolidated profile for infectious disease research at UGA. To learn more about the FID, visit: http://fid.ovpr.uga.edu/about/ The Center for Tropical and Emerging Global Diseases (CTEGD) is a university-wide, interdisciplinary center established in 1998 at UGA to foster research, education and service related to tropical and emerging infectious diseases. The Center is made up of a wide range of research programs that focus largely on protozoan and metazoan parasites, their hosts and their vectors, with both international, on-site components for both research and training. http://www.ctegd.uga.edu/ The University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine is dedicated to training future veterinarians, providing services to animal owners and veterinarians, and conducting investigations to improve the health of animals as well as people. Equipped with the most technologically advanced facilities located on a university campus, the college is dedicated to safeguarding public health by studying emerging infectious diseases that affect both animal and human health. The College enrolls 96 students each fall and has over 145 faculty members. http://www.vet.uga.edu/ The Odum School of Ecology at UGA is the first stand-alone school of ecology in the world. Areas of research emphasis include ecosystem, population and evolutionary ecology, and infectious disease ecology. The Odum School offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in ecology, as well as a master’s degree in conservation and sustainable development. To learn more, visit www.ecology.uga.edu The College of Public Health at the University of Georgia promotes health in human populations through innovative research, exemplary education, and engaged service dedicated to preventing disease and injury within the state and around the world. The College currently offers programs in biostatistics, environmental health, epidemiology, gerontology, health policy and management, health promotion and behavior, public health, and toxicology. http://www.uga.edu/publichealth/ The Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) supports and promotes UGA research and scholarly activity through improving the day-to-day work environment of researchers, building new directions in research, ensuring responsible research practices, and communicating the value of research within and beyond the university. http://www.ovpr.uga.edu/ The President's Venture Fund was established to assist with significant funding opportunities that are brought to the President's attention by the Provost with the support of a department head and dean. This fund is supported by the Arch Foundation for the University of Georgia, an organization focused on securing the private financial resources that will help continue the rise in academic quality at UGA. http://www.uga.edu/archfoundation/index.html 2 About Our Sponsors The Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases program at NSF h as supported research on the ecological, evolutionary, and socio-ecological principles and processes that influence the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases since 2000. The annual EEID PIs meeting was recently merged with the EEID conference. The Biomedical Health Sciences Institute at the University of Georgia unites faculty in multiple schools and colleges focused on health and biomedical research. Divisions include Neuroscience, One Health, and Basic and Translational Biomedical Research. www.biomed.uga.edu The Franklin College of Arts and Sciences is the oldest, largest and most academically diverse college at the University of Georgia. Franklin College comprises 30 departments in five divisions: Fine Arts, Social Sciences, Biological Sciences, Physical and Mathematical Sciences, and the Humanities. In addition to educating more undergraduates than any college on campus, the Franklin College offers 76 graduate degrees and certificates in 42 fields of study. The mission of the Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources at the University of Georgia is to prepare leaders in the conservation and sustainable management of forests and other natural resources; to discover ways to restore and better use the earth’s natural resources; and to put into practice forestry and natural resources knowledge. The efforts of One Health @ UGA aim to move beyond preventing infectious diseases toward a more comprehensive, global understanding of health that includes social, physical and other components. The goal is healthier people, healthier animals, and a healthier world. Preventing diseases and promoting health are two sides of the same coin, as is “One World, One Health.” We also thank meeting co-sponsors Emory University and Georgia Tech for contributing financial support and for participation in our steering committee. 3 About Our Sponsors 2015 EEID Organizers and Steering Committee: Co-organizer: Sonia Altizer, Professor, Odum School of Ecology, University of Georgia Co-organizer: Andrew Park, Associate Professor, Odum School of Ecology and College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Georgia Graduate assistant: Alexa McKay, PhD student, Odum School of Ecology Steering Committee: University of Georgia John Drake (Odum School of Ecology) Vanessa Ezenwa, Richard Hall, Courtney Murdock (Odum School of Ecology and College of Veterinary Medicine) Nicole Gottdenker (College of Veterinary Medicine) Andreas Handel (College of Public Health) Dan Colley (Center for Tropical and Emerging Global Diseases) Emory University Jaap de Roode (Department of Biology) Uriel Kitron (Department of Environmental Studies) Georgia Institute of Technology Joshua Weitz (School of Biology) 4 Table of Contents About our sponsors…………………………………………………………………………. 2 Meeting schedule………………………………………………………………………….... 6 List of posters ……………………………………………………………………………..… 10 Field trip………………………………………………………………………………….…… 20 Venue information……………………………………………………………..…………….. 22 Athens dining guide ……….……………………………………………………..…………. 23 Map of Athens area with hotels and conference venue…..………………………..…… 27 List of conference participants ……………………………………………………………….. 28 5 2015 EEID Meeting Schedule Tuesday May 26: Registration and Welcome Reception 6:00pm Registration opens, Classic Center Firehall 6:309:30pm Welcome Reception, Classic Center Firehall Complimentary beverages (beer, wine) and light buffet Cocktails and other drinks available for purchase Wednesday May 27: Symposium at Classic Center 8:00am 8:30am Registration opens, Classic Center Lobby (Posters can be set up starting at 8:00am) Welcome and opening remarks: John Gittleman, Dean, Odum School of Ecology; Sonia Altizer, conference co-organizer Athena Ballroom A-E Session 1: Dynamics of Neglected Tropical Diseases Athena Ballroom A-E Moderator: Courtney Murdock, Odum School of Ecology and Dept. of Infectious Diseases, College of Veterinary Medicine, UGA 8:45 Keynote: Mosquito-host-virus dynamics Laura influence the transmission patterns of dengue Harrington and Chikungunya viruses Entomology, Cornell Univ. 9:15 Environmental transmission of Mycobacterium ulcerans drives dynamics of Buruli ulcer in endemic regions of Cameroon 9:30 Understanding the mechanisms of a zoonotic Amanda reservoir: Leptospira infection in Rattus Minter norvegicus in urban slums in Brazil Ecol, Evol & Behav., Univ. of Liverpool 9:45 Double-check your hotel room: Bed bugs as vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiologic agent of Chagas disease Biostats. & Epidem., Univ. of Pennsylvania 10:00 BREAK: Complimentary refreshments served in Classic Center Lobby 10:30 Keynote: Zoonotic transmission of parasitic Thomas and bacterial enterics at the human-livestock- Gillespie wildlife interface Environ.

Buses will pick up hike participants by 11:45am from the UGA campus (see map to right). Return buses will arrive around 4pm; one of the buses will return participants to the Classic Center, and the other buses will drive to Whitehall Forest for the closing BBQ. Participants planning to attend closing BBQ should take the bus from Sandy Creek to the BBQ site; there is no transportation provided from downtown to BBQ. Options at Sandy Creek Park: Lakeside Trail: This trail follows the shore of Lake Chapman, including the new Ellen R. Jordan bridge over Sandy Creek. Hikers may return to their origin by following the paved roadways back. This trail is of moderate difficulty and takes approximately 3 hours to complete. White blazes. Trail-heads: The first trailhead is at the boat ramp parking lot located off Beech Tree Drive. A second trailhead is located off Campsite Drive on the left near the dam, park in the parking lot above and walk down to meet the trail-head. Cook's Trail: This greenway trail connects Sandy Creek Park with Sandy Creek Nature Center, and runs creek-side through woodlands and wetlands for over four miles (one way; not a loop). The trail is mostly flat and good for birdwatching. Return transportation from the Sandy Creek Nature Center is not provided. If you choose to be dropped off at the nature center, you MUST walk the trail to Sandy Creek Park to catch the return buses. Other activities – boats and disc golf: Too hot to hike in the Georgia heat? Hang out in the pavilion and take a dip at the beach. Boats (canoes, kayaks, and stand-up-paddleboards) also will be available for rental. Rates are $5/hour for the first hour, and $2/hour for subsequent hours. Sandy Creek also has a disc golf course (extra fee). See the following page for a map of Sandy Creek park trails and important EEID meeting points. 20 21 VENUE Most conference activities will take place at the Classic Center on Thomas St in downtown Athens.
