I am incredibly happy to see the publication of my first paper as senior author in @PLOSGPH. Together with my amazing co-authors Dorien Braam @PraxisLabsHK and @mbbolajoko and with funding from @CambridgeAfrica we investigated linkages between pastoral (im)mobility & #OneHealth
Downing Bye-Fellow Dr Charlotte Hammer’s first senior-authored paper has been published. The study explores the health and well-being of pastoralist communities in Plateau State, Nigeria, amidst shifting land use and conflict. Read more here: dow.cam.ac.uk/news/downing-b…
