The fellow will collaborate with veterinary medical officers, statisticians, economists and ecologists specializing in epidemiology, risk analysis, disease modeling, economic evaluation, and surveillance to learn how to operationalize, and when needed, improve analytical tools. Research activities will support rapid risk assessment, emergency preparedness, and surveillance planning for disease transmission from feral to domestic swine. The fellowship will provide opportunities for the fellow to learn about, and aid in, operationalizing analytical tools that support national scale programmatic decisions and policy.
