Ian Barker will present ‘Emerging Wildlife Diseases I have Known’ relating to his career of surveillance for, and research on, problems potentially impacting free-living and captive wildlife, domestic animals and human beings.
Noting many of the emerging diseases are likely to be affected by climate change, in this talk he will explore many of the diseases and trends he has encountered.
