Examination of empirical studies in the current literature. At the completion of this course, you should be able to: discuss the global health impact of arthropod-transmitted diseases, appreciate the diversity of human and animal pathogens and their arthropod vectors. During the course, you will: learn how to use the library effectively to find current literature. Please try to find papers that have been published in the past 5 years so that you are using up-to-date information. Often you will need to read an older scientific review or a textbook chapter to gain sufficient background information before you are able to find appropriate papers from the peer-reviewed scientific literature. During the lecture on january 15th we will go over two papers to demonstrate what makes one paper superior to the other. A list of topics and dates have been posted on sakai.
