ZELS-AS

We are the studentship programme of the Zoonoses and Emerging Livestock Systems programme, funded by @BBSRC, @NERCscience, @ESRC, @The_MRC, @DFID_UK, and DSTL

[ZELS-AS @zels_as]

@herzi38 @queerdesigrrrl @ZELSprogramme Definitely check out @GemmaChaters, who is modelling zoonotic disease outbreaks through livestock networks in TZ. Also @Alicia_L_Davis, currently working on a big TZ AMR project with tons of experience with @WilldeGlanville on risk mapping and integrating qual & quant approaches.

Congratulations to @RebeccaBodenham who had a successful zoom #viva yesterday - managing to complete her PhD from the edge of the Ngorongoro crater in #Tanzania

Well done to her colleagues in Tanzania for the fabulous Brucella positive goat cake! 🍰🐐#bakeyourspecies

[James Wood @jw132]

Great to have spent the day with @siobhanmor @EdaoMammo discussing opportunities for #OneHealth collaboration between @OneHealthHORN and @ethicobots in Addis Ababa @ZELSprogramme @zels_as @BBSRC @APHAgovuk

[ZELS-AS @zels_as]

Congratulations to newly minted Dr James Nyarobi! James looked at inter-epidemic Rift Valley Fever and his cake accurately reflects many many hours in the lab! Congratulations James!

[ZELS-AS @zels_as]

Go Jennika! Another of our cohort celebrates a successful viva!

Our students are moving into so many interesting roles, like Jennika who is straight into a @ZELSprogramme follow-on project.

[alicia davis @Alicia_L_Davis]

Hongera! Congrats to Dr Virhia! That’s Dr @Jennika23 who passed her viva today! It’s been a joy to have you as a student with @ProfJoSharp and @TheWeeBarra and super excited to continue to work with you as a (a now officially “post”) postdoc on the OOHTZ project!

[Webster Research Group @JoWebster_Group]

Great to see our Stefano Catalano (the first of the ZELS AS cohort to finish his PhD) as the ‘cover boy star’ 😉 for these super @zels_as @ZELSprogramme documents here @ECTMIH2019

[Bhagya Chengat @bhagya_chengat]

So happy to be reunited with @zels_as peeps at #ECTMIH2019 #OneHealth #phdlife @ZELSprogramme @Jennika23 @rachelsarahlea @drhassaan85

[ZELS-AS @zels_as]

Congratulations to @rachelsarahlea, another #ZELSAS student completing their viva!

Rachel survived flat tires, remote field sites and even an internship with the House of Lords to get to the finish line.

We are delighted that our @BBSRC #ukaid supported #PhD student @EdaoMammo, studying the neglected #zoonosis brucellosis and based in @CamVetSchool @ethicobots programme, partnering with @APHAgovuk , was able to provide the image for this tweet

Are you a social scientist interested in #OneHealth? Do consider submitting an abstract for the #WOHC2020! @ProfJoSharp @PoultryHub @ZELSprogramme @AnthroAMR @anthrozoonoses @zels_as

[ZELS-AS @zels_as]

Congratulations to another amazing cohort member, Josh Sealy from @Pirbright_Inst, on his successful viva! Josh will be staying on with Pirbright for a postdoc on avian influenza viruses, also the topic of his PhD.

An amazing day of student talks and now a bit bittersweet as Stefano Catalano and @GemmaChaters give the last cohort meeting talks of ZELS-AS. @BBSRC @DFID_UK @ESRC @NERCscience @The_MRC

[Jennika Virhia @Jennika23]

Mixed feelings as I begin my journey south for the final @zels_as cohort meeting. We've gathered in some pretty incredible places, from Arusha to Hanoi, let's see what Beverley has in store 😁🚉
