34 million years ago, monkeys crossed the Atlantic on rafts of vegetation 🌊🐒 — founding New World monkeys in South America.
Nature’s unpredictability shaped evolution then, just as it shapes ecosystems and emerging diseases today.

Ecosystems are like Jenga towers.
Remove too many species, and collapse is inevitable.
That’s why BCOMING studies how biodiversity protects us from emerging diseases. (2/2)

Can nature help fight disease?
Biodiversity can both shield us and increase risks.
#BCOMING explores how ecosystems influence disease spread — and why research and monitoring matter for public health.
🧠 Understanding dilution and amplification effects may help prevent future outbreaks.
