Christopher Hamilton‐west - Epidemiology

Author Information

Christopher Hamilton-West is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Epidemiology Unit, Department of Preventive Veterinary Medicine, Faculty of Veterinary Science at Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile. His research primarily focuses on veterinary epidemiology, contributing significantly to the field through his extensive work on infectious diseases affecting animals, especially in Chile.

Research Contributions

Christopher Hamilton-West has made substantial contributions to understanding and controlling infectious diseases in animals. His work spans various aspects of veterinary epidemiology, including the surveillance and control of avian influenza, the presence of multidrug-resistant Salmonella in veterinary settings, and the diversity of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in cattle. His recent studies involve investigating the prevalence of influenza in domestic pets and the environmental factors influencing avian influenza in wetlands. He also explores antimicrobial resistance and the presence of antibiotic residues in animal products, emphasizing the importance of food safety and public health.
