The Aquatic Pathobiology Laboratory, operated by the Emerging Pathogens Institute at the University of Florida, offers investigators lab space to research infectious diseases affecting fresh- and saltwater organisms.
Dispersal typically consists of three components—departure, transience and settlement—each of which can be influenced by the landscape.
Xanthomonas species infect a wide range of annual and perennial plants. Bacterial blight in young seedlings of Eucalyptus spp. in Indonesia was originally identified as Xanthomonas perforans.
A University of Florida research team is playing its part to stop the global HIV epidemic, applying the power of artificial intelligence to medical records.
Malaria programs rely upon a variety of diagnostic assays, including rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), microscopy, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and bead-based immunoassays (BBA), to monitor malaria prevalence and support control and elimination efforts
Human mobility patterns changed greatly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite many analyses investigating general mobility trends, there has been less work characterising changes in mobility on a fine spatial scale and developing frameworks to model these changes.
Mayaro virus (MAYV) is an emerging mosquito-borne alphavirus that causes clinical symptoms similar to those caused by Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), Dengue virus (DENV), and Zika virus (ZIKV).
Limited pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic data are a barrier to the scale-up of dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) in children.
To investigate and describe the variability in cefepime exposures among ‘real-world’, critically ill patients by using population pharmacokinetic modelling and simulations, and with translation of these findings to visualizations.
Inhibitors targeting the 4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) enzyme are well established herbicides and HPPD is also a primary enzyme within the tyrosine metabolism pathway in hematophagous arthropods, which is an essential metaboilic pathway post-blood feeding to prevent tyrosine-mediated toxicity.
