A delegation of One Health Poultry Hub researchers took part in the 16th International Symposium of Veterinary Epidemiology and Economics (ISVEE) held in Halifax, Nova Scotia. After a long period of online conferences as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers were finally able to meet in person to present their work.
Hub researcher Marie-Cécile Dupas, of the Université Libre de Bruxelles (Spatial Epidemiology Lab, SpeLL), said: “It was a great opportunity for our team to communicate on our recent research results through oral presentations and posters, connect with other research teams, and plan the future work of the Hub in face-to-face meetings.”
Hub presentations at the event included:
- Lorcan Carnegie – ‘Unravelling H9N2 and H5N1 avian influenza virus dispersal along Bangladeshi poultry trading networks.’ View the poster.
- Anne Conan – ‘Investigating poultry trade patterns to improve disease surveillance: A cross-sectional study in Gujarat.’ View the poster.
