My role as a bat scientist in preventing the next pandemic is to conduct"boots-on-the-ground" surveillance. For the past three years, I have worked hands-on with in-country partners across Western Asia, including Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Jordan, Oman, Pakistan, and Turkey, to collect samples from bats for cataloging the diversity of coronaviruses, an arduous task that is often underappreciated yet fundamental.
I work for EcoHealth Alliance, a nonprofit organization that works globally to better understand the mechanics of how diseases spread. These samples are invaluable in our fight against new and emerging diseases. They help us to get a better picture of what threats are out there and where they are; if we have learned anything this year my hope is that it's to understand a virus halfway around the world is potentially only a plane ride away from our doorsteps.
But despite being an international bat scientist, I have spent the better part of this year grounded by the very thing I've worked to prevent. But my work hasn't stopped despite the pandemic. I continue to coordinate the field teams in each country while they persevere despite the pandemic to sample bats. I am always ready to provide remote support at any time of day, even if just to answer questions about the best spot to place the mist nets or help with identifying a bat species.
I believe it is only when we appreciate that the health of animals and the environment are intertwined with our own health we can truly prevent the next pandemic.
