         Objective 1

Generate and validate spatiotemporal predictions of potential vector abundance

 

Objective 3

Design and assess integrated control strategies against RVFV epizootics that consider sources of inter-epizootic transmission

 

Objective 2

Develop mechanistic models of RVFV transmission to identify sources of inter-epizootic transmission and risk to humans
