The 2022 Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Diseases meeting will be held at Emory University, 6-9 June 2022. The meeting will be held in hybrid format (in-person and online) and will provide a workshop for graduate students and early-career postdocs on Pandemic Scenario Modeling and Science Communication. In this workshop, participants will learn the latest applications of models to study outbreak scenarios, and further incorporate economics and host behavior into these models to determine the impacts of social aspects on infectious disease transmission. Moreover, trainees will obtain training in effective science communication. Conference sessions will include these same themes, and additionally address the importance of Social Justice and Infectious Disease. A final session will focus on Infectious Diseases Across Scales, with a focus on understanding how interactions between biological, spatial andtemporal scales affect transmission of pathogens and parasites of a wide diversity of hosts, including wildlife, livestock and humans. The meeting will bring together scientists from around the world to discuss the latest research on pressing issues, including the role of climate change in driving infectious disease, and the importance of racial and other social disparities in causing inequity and preventing effective control of disease. The explicit focus on social justice and infectious disease will showcase the crucial integration of biomedical science, social science, public health and ecology.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

2022年传染病生态学和进化会议将于2022年6月6日至9日在埃默里大学举行。会议将以混合形式(面对面和在线)举行，并将为研究生和职业生涯早期博士后提供关于大流行情景建模和科学传播的研讨会。在这次研讨会中，参与者将学习模型的最新应用，以研究暴发情景，并进一步将经济学和宿主行为纳入这些模型，以确定社会因素对传染病传播的影响。此外，受训者将获得有效的科学交流培训。会议将包括这些相同的主题，并另外讨论社会正义和传染病的重要性。最后一次会议将侧重于跨尺度传染病，重点是了解生物、空间和时间尺度之间的相互作用如何影响包括野生动物、牲畜和人类在内的各种宿主的病原体和寄生虫的传播。来自世界各地的科学家将齐聚一堂，讨论关于紧迫问题的最新研究，包括气候变化在推动传染病方面的作用，以及种族和其他社会差异在造成不平等和防止有效控制疾病方面的重要性。对社会公正和传染病的明确关注将展示生物医学、社会科学、公共卫生和生态学的关键整合。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
