[Evento] Programa de Pós-graduação em Ciências Veterinárias oferta disciplina em parceria com Ohio State University
O Programa de Pós-graduação em Ciências Veterinárias oferta disciplina CVET7029 – Epidemiology of Vector-Borne Diseases, em colaboração com Global One Health initiative (GOHi) – The Ohio State University.
A disciplina, ministrada na língua inglesa, faz parte de uma série de ações entre o acordo de cooperação entre a UFPR-OSU, bem como com o acordo com a Abrar University, Somália.
Course description
The rise in global temperatures associated with changes in climate and land use are major drivers of global environmental change resulting in biodiversity loss, altered microclimates, and shifts in the burden and distribution of arthropod vectors, effectively expanding the geographic regions at risk for vector-borne diseases (VBDs). The COVID-19 pandemic has presented a different type of crisis, since surveillance and control of vectors, as well as VBDs, eroded as public health organizations were forced to redirect most of their attention, workforce, and resources to quell the pandemic.
On this pattern, the Vector-Borne Diseases Laboratory (VBDL), Federal University of Paraná (UFPR), Brazil, The Global One Health initiative (GOHi) – The Ohio State University, USA, and worldwide research partners invites undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, health professionals, pharmaceutical companies, and decision makers to attend the Epidemiology of Vector-Borne Diseases course during September 27 to October 1, 2021. The GOHi highlights that the future of VBD management must involve a fully integrated, adaptive approach to human, animal, and environmental health. On this course, we will focus that a transdisciplinary approach to enhance research, identify and address gaps in knowledge, and optimize approaches to the surveillance and control is needed.”
