Agents of Emerging Infectious Diseases Assignment

Assignment Task

Our knowledge and understanding of agents of disease that impact upon animals are constantly expanding, with new research findings fostering new theories and improved comprehension of the pathogenesis and epidemiology of various infectious diseases of significance to animals. In this assignment you will be given a recently published (2023) scientific paper on an aspect of the pathogenesis or epidemiology of a specific viral pathogen. You will then choose 2 other original scientific papers (NOT REVIEW ARTICLES!!!) published in journals within the last 5 years (2019- 2024) to develop a theme to base your review upon. The theme can be any aspect of the host- pathogen-environmental interaction that allows you to explore and review the pathogenesis and/or epidemiology of disease caused by the organism and how it relates to our understanding of rational treatment, control or prevention of the disease. Your task for this assignment will be to produce a word literature review based on the 3 papers exploring a specific theme of relevance and importance in our current understanding of a given viral animal pathogen.

The literature review should

• Introduce the agent and the theme explored in the review.
• Critically review the papers examined by comparing, contrasting and relating the results and findings to the theme of the review.
• Summarise the new information and how it extends our understanding of the
  pathogenesis and/or epidemiology of disease caused by the infectious agent.
