STUDY OF WASH AND ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE IN UGANDA (SWAR-U)
REFNo: HS489ES
Primary objective: To describe the transmission dynamics and ecological niches of ESBL-E and ESBL-K within selected households from Kampala and Hoima
Secondary objectives:
To evaluate the drivers of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) practices and their relation to the faecal-oral transmission of extended spectrum beta-lactamase producing Eschericia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae
To create a dynamic agent-based model to evaluate the drivers of antimicrobial resistance transmission in Uganda, through the incorporation of microbiological resistance data (ESBL-E and ESBL-K) and WASH observational data obtained from all households included in the SWAR-U study

Behavioral endocrinology of male dispersal in vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) at Lake Nabugabo, Uganda
REFNo: NS84ES
Evolutionary causes and consequences (or the “whyâ€) of dispersal are fairly well established, bein respectively inbreeding avoidance and increased reproductive success (Bowler & Benton, 2005). However, the environmental, social, individual, and physiological proximate mechanisms underlying individual dispersal decisions, and their consequences, are still poorly understood. Previous studies have mainly focused on the individual’s physiological response to
8
dispersal events (before and after) and looked at the social outcome (e.g., dominance rank) rather than the processes leading to that outcome. For this research, my objectives are to examine how the numerous potential costs of dispersal drive individual dispersal decisions as to when, where, and how they transfer (lone or parallel). I will assess the environmental, social, and physiological causes and consequences of dispersal in vervet monkeys at Lake Nabugabo. My hypotheses and predictions are summarized in Table 2. Dominance rank is often established once a male immigrates into another group. The males’ ability to take over a group and the attainment of a high dominance rank might be dependent on when, where, and how they disperse. My research contributes to a broader understanding of how the immediate environmental, social, and individual factors affect the way they transfer.
