There is an increasing emphasis on genomic and molecular epidemiology, particularly in understanding the dynamics of infectious diseases and resistance patterns.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Parasitology Studies:
Research specifically focused on traditional parasitology has decreased, possibly due to the evolving nature of health challenges that require broader interdisciplinary approaches. - Basic Laboratory Techniques in Isolation and Identification:
There is less emphasis on basic laboratory techniques for pathogen isolation and identification, as the field moves towards more advanced molecular and genomic methods. - Historical Public Health Practices:
Studies examining historical public health practices and their implications have waned, reflecting a shift towards contemporary issues and innovative solutions. - Single Disease Focus Research:
Research that concentrates solely on single diseases without considering broader health determinants or comorbidities is becoming less common, as interdisciplinary approaches gain prominence.
