Most existing and emerging infectious diseases have their origin in animal populations. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic the need to understand the cause and impacts of wildlife diseases, as well as how to manage them, has only become increasingly salient. In a November 2024 Chats in the Stacks book talk at Mann Library, Robin Radcliffe, associate professor of practice in Wildlife and Conservation Medicine in the Veterinary School, and David Jessup, former senior wildlife veterinarian of the California Department of Fish and Game and former executive manager of the Wildlife Disease Association, presented a discussion of their co-edited volume "Wildlife Disease and Health in Conservation" (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2023). The book combines theory and practice, offering cutting-edge scientific information to aid in planning for, responding to, and conducting research on these serious challenges to both human and wildlife health, and to conservation efforts around the world.
Attention Cornell Video Users
Beginning on May 1, 2025, University Relations will no longer accept submissions to Cornell Video (formerly known as CornellCast). This is the first step toward decommissioning the service altogether.
Moving forward, we urge you to use the Video On Demand (VOD) service provided by CIT to host your video content. Instructions for uploading to VOD and general information about the platform can be found at the Video on Demand website.
We are working with CIT to determine the best path toward migrating existing videos in the Cornell Video collection to VOD. Owners of Cornell Video collections will be contacted in the coming weeks to facilitate this effort.
It is our intent to sunset CornellVideo on June 30, 2025. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the Digital Experience team at cornellcast@cornell.edu.
