Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Janine Mistrick investigates the complex interplay between wildlife, human activity, and disease transmission. Her research focuses on rodent populations, particularly in agricultural and synanthropic environments, examining factors that influence their health and their role as reservoirs for zoonotic diseases. Mistrick has studied the effects of habitat and resource availability on rodent behavior, including space use and social interactions, and how these dynamics impact parasite and pathogen transmission.

Her work also delves into the gut microbiome of rodents and its relationship with the prevalence of zoonotic bacterial pathogens. Mistrick's publications explore strategies for mitigating zoonotic threats, emphasizing the importance of understanding disease ecology, synanthropy, and rodent population dynamics. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Kristian M. Forbes and Shannon M. Kitchen.
