项目摘要
Emerging infectious diseases pose significant threats to global public health. The vast majority of diseases enter the human population through pathogen transfer from animals. The example of a human-acquired primate virus, which mutated to HIV serves as the underlying motivation for this project. Understanding the social and geographic contexts for human acquisition of animal pathogens will enable the interruption of pathogen exchange. The research setting for this research is Kibale Forest National Park in western Uganda, which serves as an epicenter of primate biodiversity and a focus of human-primate interaction. Conflicting goals of conservation and human livelihood over the preservation versus utilization of the environment, result in significant pressure on primate populations. This applies both to those living in the park and especially those inhabiting small, highly degraded patches of forest outside protected areas. This pressure leads to increased interaction between people and primates, and as interaction increases, so does the risk of pathogen transfer. This research analyzes the ecological and social factors that cause people-primate interaction around forest patches. It investigates the impact that human activities and spaces play in relation to primate habitat on human health. Health and behavior surveys combined with maps of activity spaces provide the data to test for meaningful relationships between disease, activities and spaces of people and primates. Further data will be generated through interviews with key informants. These interviews provide the project with the political, economic, and social structures behind human activities and spaces. The investigators expect to find structural elements shaping human activities and dictating activity spaces; and that activity spaces shared with primates significantly impact human health. This project extends current research focused on the biophysical processes of cross-species pathogen transmission. By pursuing two goals simultaneously - one that explores associations between primate exposure and risk of infectious disease and the other to understand structural factors that inform such exposures - we respond to gaps in contemporary cross-species disease research. Refining the spatial relationship between human activities, primate habitat, and health will provide the global community with a geographic context for emerging cross-species disease. Moreover, articulating the nuances of social, political and economic structures mediating transmission dynamics addresses the complex effects of social structure on disease ecology. Flexible interview methods allow underrepresented groups to voice health and conservation concerns. Understanding the social and spatial conditions that promote disease transmission is vital for predicting and preventing the emergence and spread of potentially pandemic cross-species diseases.
新发传染病对全球公共卫生构成重大威胁。绝大多数疾病是通过动物的病原体转移进入人类的。人类获得的灵长类病毒突变为艾滋病毒的例子是这个项目的潜在动机。了解人类获得动物病原体的社会和地理背景将能够中断病原体交换。这项研究的研究背景是乌干达西部的基巴莱森林国家公园,它是灵长类动物生物多样性的中心,也是人类与灵长类动物互动的焦点。将保护和人类生计的目标置于保护与利用环境之上,导致灵长类动物种群面临巨大压力。这既适用于那些生活在公园里的人,也适用于那些居住在保护区外的小块高度退化的森林中的人。这种压力导致人与灵长类动物之间的互动增加,随着互动的增加,病原体转移的风险也增加。本研究分析了引起森林斑块周围人-灵长类动物相互作用的生态和社会因素。它调查了人类活动和空间对灵长类动物栖息地对人类健康的影响。健康和行为调查结合活动空间地图提供了数据,以测试疾病,活动和人类和灵长类动物空间之间的有意义的关系。将通过与关键线人的访谈产生进一步的数据。这些访谈为项目提供了人类活动和空间背后的政治,经济和社会结构。研究人员希望找到塑造人类活动和支配活动空间的结构元素;与灵长类动物共享的活动空间会显著影响人类健康。该项目扩展了目前的研究重点是跨物种病原体传播的生物物理过程。通过同时追求两个目标--一个是探索灵长类动物暴露与传染病风险之间的关联,另一个是了解告知这种暴露的结构因素--我们对当代跨物种疾病研究的空白做出了回应。完善人类活动、灵长类动物栖息地和健康之间的空间关系将为全球社会提供新出现的跨物种疾病的地理背景。此外,阐明介导传播动态的社会、政治和经济结构的细微差别,解决了社会结构对疾病生态的复杂影响。灵活的访谈方法使代表性不足的群体能够表达健康和保护问题。了解促进疾病传播的社会和空间条件对于预测和预防潜在的大流行性跨物种疾病的出现和传播至关重要。
