Welcome to the Applied Spatial Wildlife Ecology Lab
at the University of Maryland
Humans and wildlife are increasingly coming into contact, and the risk of zoonotic disease transmission is rising as a result. The Applied Spatial Wildlife Ecology Lab (ASWEL) seeks to understand how wildlife movement dynamics interact with zoonotic disease through the study of wildlife ecology with a focus on spatial epidemiology.
