Project Details
Description
This project will focus on understanding the risk of emerging vector-borne zoonoses that could affect human and animal health in Scotland and improving our understanding of the transmission of two bacteria which cause food-borne zoonoses in Scotland. Data generated in this project will inform control strategies and be able to provide mitigation which could break transmission chains, improve animal welfare and production, and save human life.
