Anticipating the species jump: surveillance for emerging viral threats. [PDF]
, 2012 Zoonotic disease surveillance is typically triggered after animal pathogens have already infected humans. Are there ways to identify high-risk viruses before they emerge in humans? If so, then how and where can identifications be made and by what methods?

Enhanced Attraction of Arthropod Vectors to Infected Vertebrates: A Review of Empirical Evidence
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 A large diversity of parasites manipulates their hosts in various ways to complete their own life cycle. Enhancing the attractiveness of their host to vectors has been suggested as a strategy allowing vector-borne parasites to increase their transmission.

Genetic characterization of flea-derived Bartonella species from native animals in Australia suggests host-parasite co-evolution [PDF]
, 2011 Fleas are important arthropod vectors for a variety of diseases in veterinary and human medicine, and bacteria belonging to the genus Bartonella are among the organisms most commonly transmitted by these ectoparasites.
