Community structure and the spread of infectious disease in primate social networks

RH Griffin, CL Nunn - Evolutionary Ecology, 2012 - Springer
Living in a large social group is thought to increase disease risk in wild animal populations,
but comparative studies have provided mixed support for this prediction. Here, we take a …

Does habitat disturbance increase infectious disease risk for primates?

H Young, RH Griffin, CL Wood, CL Nunn - Ecology Letters, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Many studies have suggested that ecosystem conservation protects human and wildlife
