Infectious diseases of humans, wildlife, and domesticated species are increasing worldwide,
driving the need to understand the mechanisms that shape outbreaks. Simultaneously, …

Infectious diseases are emerging globally at an unprecedented rate while global food
demand is projected to increase sharply by 2100. Here, we synthesize the pathways by which …

Thermal acclimation capacity, the degree to which organisms can alter their optimal performance
temperature and critical thermal limits with changing temperatures, reflects their ability …

Emerging fungal pathogens pose a greater threat to biodiversity than any other parasitic group
1 , causing declines of many taxa, including bats, corals, bees, snakes and amphibians 1 …

The disease ecology community has struggled to come to consensus on whether biodiversity
reduces or increases infectious disease risk, a question that directly affects policy …

Parasites typically have broader thermal limits than hosts, so large performance gaps between
pathogens and their cold‐ and warm‐adapted hosts should occur at relatively warm and …

Humans are altering the distribution of species by changing the climate and disrupting biotic
interactions and dispersal. A fundamental hypothesis in spatial ecology suggests that these …

Climate change might drive species declines by altering species interactions, such as host–parasite
interactions. However, few studies have combined experiments, field data, and …

Even apparently similar hosts can respond differently to the same parasites. Some
individuals or specific groups of individuals disproportionately affect disease dynamics. …

Humans are altering biodiversity globally and infectious diseases are on the rise; thus, there
is interest in understanding how changes to biodiversity affect disease. Here, we explore …
