Transmission ecology of parasites (viruses, nematodes) among a cylic rodent community. Consequences for human public health.
Several rodent species exhibit cyclic variations of their population densities. These demographic cycles, by increasing contacts between humans and animals, can influence the emergence of zoonoses. This thesis takes part in conservation medicine. This approach aims to study human health by consideri...

Several rodent species exhibit cyclic variations of their population densities. These demographic cycles, by increasing contacts between humans and animals, can influence the emergence of zoonoses. This thesis takes part in conservation medicine. This approach aims to study human health by considering also animal health and ecosystem dynamics. In this context, I studied a community of parasites found in a community of cyclic rodents to identify the reservoirs of zoonosis agents and the parasites, which may have a role in rodent demographic cycles. I focused on a rodent community including the fossorial water voles, the common voles, the bank voles, the yellow necked mice and the wood mice in Franche-Comté (East of France).
