Rachel & (my) Brooke's Jobs intersect

This very cool article is about UAF tracking migratory birds in alaska, and tracing their interactions - as a way to study bird flu. It's really quite cool - as a number of wild migratory bird all meet up in AK, it can potentially be a vector for flu spreading in the wild populations. Of course much of the real concern is in captive populations , particularly in SE Asia, but what's in captive can spread to wild, and understanding what is going on here looks to be an interesting challenge.
