本期特刊中包含的三篇论文代表了国际生物识别学会北美东部地区 2005 年春季会议疾病生态学特邀会议上的一系列演讲。这些论文均涉及不同疾病过程特定组成部分的统计估计和推断，并综合说明疾病的生态和公共卫生影响研究中出现的统计问题的广度。作为介绍，我们对“疾病生态学”领域进行了非常简短的概述，涉及疾病生态学不同方面的各种同义词，并提出了一个示意性结构，说明了潜在疾病过程的一般组成部分、数据收集问题以及从微生物学到公共卫生监测的不同学科观点。
The three papers included in this special issue represent a set of presentations in an invited session on disease ecology at the 2005 Spring Meeting of the Eastern North American Region of the International Biometric Society. The papers each address statistical estimation and inference for particular components of different disease processes and, taken together, illustrate the breadth of statistical issues arising in the study of the ecology and public health impact of disease. As an introduction, we provide a very brief overview of the area of “disease ecology”, a variety of synonyms addressing different aspects of disease ecology, and present a schematic structure illustrating general components of the underlying disease process, data collection issues, and different disciplinary perspectives ranging from microbiology to public health surveillance.
