Cary Institute's grounds have been home to long-term studies on the ecology of tick-borne disease [12] for more than 20 years. Findings underpin The Tick Project, [13] a 5-year study testing interventions with the potential to reduce Lyme disease and protect public health.
Faculty in the College of Agricultural Sciences also train in cross-campus graduate degree programs, including training for M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in: Cell and Molecular Biology; Ecology; A Teaching in Extension graduate certificate is also offered by the college.
Disease ecology is a sub-discipline of ecology concerned with the mechanisms, patterns, and effects of host-pathogen interactions, particularly those of infectious diseases. [1] For example, it examines how parasites spread through and influence wildlife populations and communities.
Thirty-five to forty percent of Human Ecology students continue in professional or graduate degree programs following the completion of undergraduate degree programs. The college also houses the Cornell Institute for Public Affairs (CIPA), which awards the Master of Public Administration degree and the Sloan Program Master of Health Administration.

SEAS provides graduate-level degrees at the doctorate and master's levels. Prior to 2004, the School of Natural Resources and Environment offered undergraduate degrees in Environmental Science and Environmental Policy, before restructuring as a graduate-level degree program.
Alison G. Power is an American biologist. She is a professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.Her research investigates disease ecology in plant communities, both natural and agricultural, across the U.S., Central America, Southeast Asia, and Africa.
Hua completed her postdoc at Purdue University, IN, from 2014-2015. [3] She had studied amphibian disease ecology along with her advisor Jason Hoverman. [6] In her research article on "The contribution of phenotypic plasticity to the evolution of insecticide tolerance in amphibian populations" she discussed how wood frog populations were seen to have higher tolerance to the pesticide carbaryl ...
