Journal Article
Alarcon, P., Marco-Jimenez, F., Arnold, M., Wolf, A., Rajanayagam, B., Stevens, K., & Adkin, A. (2018). Spatio-temporal and risk factor analysis of alleles related to Scrapie resistance in sheep in Great Britain before, during and after a national breeding program. Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 159, 12-21. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.prevetmed.2018.08.008

Certain genotypes of sheep have been identified to increase their susceptibility (the VRQ allele) or resistance (the ARR allele) to classical scrapie. This study’s aim was to assess the spatio-temporal pattern of the ARR and VRQ alleles in GB and to...

Comparative epidemiology of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 and H5N6 in Vietnamese live bird markets: spatio-temporal patterns of distribution and risk factors
Journal Article
Mellor, K. C., Meyer, A., Elkholly, D. A., Fournié, G., Long, P. T., Inui, K., …Stevens, K. B. (in press). Comparative epidemiology of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 and H5N6 in Vietnamese live bird markets: spatio-temporal patterns of distribution and risk factors. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 5, 51. https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2018.00051

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 virus has been circulating in Vietnam since 2003, whilst outbreaks of HPAI H5N6 virus are more recent, having only been reported since 2014. Although the spatial distribution of H5N1 outbreaks and risk fa...

Sources of spatial animal and human health data: Casting the net wide to deal more effectively with increasingly complex disease problems
Journal Article
Stevens, K. B., & Pfeiffer, D. U. (in press). Sources of spatial animal and human health data: Casting the net wide to deal more effectively with increasingly complex disease problems. Spatial and Spatio-temporal Epidemiology, 13, 15-29. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.sste.2015.04.003

During the last 30 years it has become commonplace for epidemiological studies to collect locational attributes of disease data. Although this advancement was driven largely by the introduction of handheld global positioning systems (GPS), and more r...
