Under the supervision of the ILRI Scientist, the Research Fellow will contribute to the project Epidemiology of Peste des Petits Ruminants.

The overall objective of the project is to better understand the infection dynamics of the Peste des Petits Ruminants virus (PPRV) in selected production systems and the importance of other small ruminants’ diseases.
