Infectious diseases in animals impact the social and economic well-being of people around the globe. EU-funded scientists are prioritising diseases and developing tools to effectively eradicate them.
The European Technology Platform for Global Animal Health (ETPGAH), launched in 2004, has developed a Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) and resulting Action Plan (AP). In line with proposals, scientists initiated the EU-funded project ''Development of the most effective tools to control infectious diseases in animals'' (DISCONTOOLS).
