Multidisciplinary approaches are critical to address the increasingly complex issues at the intersection of nonhuman primates and neglected infectious diseases. In this chapter, we use the Gombe Ecosystem Health Project in Tanzania to demonstrate how team science can be launched to tackle complexity in health. The diverse interactions among humans, nonhuman primates, and domestic animals within and outside the park highlight the need for collaborative research in order to thoroughly understand the role of monkeys in pathogen transmission. We offer three steps for the creation of a multidisciplinary team that can perform research in the context of ecosystem health: (1) problem formulation and conceptual mapping, (2) stakeholder consideration, and (3) team formulation and practice. This case study illustrates the expansion from a “Chimpanzee Health Project” to an “Ecosystem Health Project” that was only successful through the use of multidisciplinary team science. |
