Research on Tap: Climate Change and Infectious Diseases

Climate change and associated aberrant weather patterns are responsible for a wide array of health issues, posing an urgent need for research to guide evidence-based public health policy. While interdisciplinary connections have been steadily evolving among the many researchers studying related topics across BU schools and colleges, the growing threat of emerging infectious diseases during the era of climate change continues to demand further scholarship and deeper collaboration.

This Research on Tap will convene students, faculty, and research scientists from various disciplines within BU to share their ongoing projects, available resources, datasets, and ideas, and facilitate new collaborations within the University. Lightning talks from researchers will be followed by a panel discussion with faculty leading major efforts to facilitate new, convergent research around this important topic.
