This award supports a workshop that will explore the potential for in the area of ecology and evolution of infectious diseases. The workshop be held in Kunming China in October 2012. Investigators from the United States and China will discuss research priorities and ways to collaborate and explore the potential for joint US and China research in the area of ecology and evolution of infectious disease, and stimulate awareness of the crosscutting benefits of such efforts. Cross-cultural and interdisciplinary knowledge and novel insight will be gained as well as lasting collaborations towards uncovering key questions in this arena. Current research in the ecology and evolution of infectious diseases is often directed nationally. Focused, international efforts will permit investigators to share information, training, and experience as well as work on a level that reflects the reality that diseases are not restricted to national boundaries. By igniting investigative interest on an international level, costs effective strategies from shared funding and research efforts will evolve.

该奖项支持一个研讨会，将探讨在生态学和传染病的演变领域的潜力。研讨会将于2012年10月在中国昆明举行。来自美国和中国的研究人员将讨论研究重点和合作方式，并探索中美在传染病生态学和进化领域联合研究的潜力，并促进对此类努力的跨领域效益的认识。将获得跨文化和跨学科的知识和新颖的见解，以及持久的合作，以揭示这一竞技场的关键问题。目前在生态学和传染病的演变研究往往是全国性的。有重点的国际努力将使调查人员能够分享信息、培训和经验，并在反映疾病不限于国界这一现实的水平上开展工作。通过在国际层面上激发调查兴趣，将从共享资金和研究努力中发展出具有成本效益的战略。
