Dr. Teglas investigates the epidemiology of tick-borne pathogens, particularly Epizootic Bovine Abortion (EBA) and relapsing fever spirochetes, through ecological modeling, vector studies, and host-pathogen interactions. His work spans veterinary diagnostics, wildlife disease surveillance, and environmental health assessments.
Recent publications highlight his interdisciplinary approach, covering topics like viral transmission in insect herbivores, tick distribution mapping, vaccine development for cattle diseases, and mercury contamination in pet food. While no explicit awards or student advising records are documented in the provided texts, his collaborations with veterinary and ecological researchers demonstrate significant contributions to public health and agricultural sustainability.
