GEDIHAP: The role of genetic diversity in host-pathogen interactions in dynamic environments. This project lies at the interface between food production, environmental health, and human societies. Healthy societies are the key to sustainability. Healthy societies are based on healthy people, existing in healthy environments, and with access to a healthy food supply. Infectious diseases have major adverse effects on the environment, food supplies, and human and societal health. Genetic diversity has a major influence on the impact of infectious diseases, and infectious diseases can have a major impact on genetic diversity. Several internationally-recognized research groups work within the ETH/Eawag/WSL domains on the interplay between genetic diversity and infectious diseases, and between genetic diversity and the influence of dynamic environments, but there is no "glue" to bind them together. The proposed project offers the binding agent that could lead to development of a world leading competence center in the arena of ecology and evolution of infectious diseases.
