Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Isabella K. DeAnglis's research investigates the interactions between wildlife and humans, particularly in the context of zoonotic diseases. Her work has focused on bat populations, examining their cellular immunity in relation to environmental changes and dietary habits. DeAnglis has also studied the prevalence of hemoplasmas and bartonella species in bats, including those that live in close proximity to human structures in rural Kenya. Her research employs surveys and questionnaires to understand human-bat contact patterns and has contributed to the understanding of microbial diversity in bat populations across different geographical regions, including the Neotropics.

She has published eight scholarly articles, accumulating 55 citations and an h-index of 4. DeAnglis collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Kristian M. Forbes and Reilly T. Jackson, with whom she shares multiple publications. Her recent work indicates ongoing activity in her research areas.
