Surveillance and biosecurity in animal and public health

About the activity

Biosecurity and disease surveillance constitute two fundamental pillars for preventing, detecting, and managing health crises in both animal and public health. In a context of increasing interconnection between animal, human, and environmental health—as promoted by the One Health approach—the integration of robust biosecurity measures with efficient surveillance programs is essential to anticipate threats, contain outbreaks, and minimize the consequences of future health crises.

This event is part of the collaboration framework between IRTA-CReSA and the Center for Research in Porcine and Poultry Infections (CRIPA) in Quebec (Canada). During the event, the results of several joint projects will be presented.
