This project investigates how social interactions in clonal raider ants influence disease transmission. By combining behavioral tracking and molecular tools, it aims to understand the relationship between social network structure, individual immunity, and disease dynamics in social organisms.
The risks and impact of disease are exacerbated in social organisms, which live in dense groups wherein pathogens can rapidly propagate.
Theoretical epidemiology predicts that disease dynamics will depend in large part on a group's social interaction network, but empirical data are scarce.
Experimental epidemiology is currently hampered by a lack of study systems that would enable a rigorous investigation of the causal link between network structure and disease transmission. I will tackle this q…
