Section overview
Description
We conduct research and provide diagnostic and advisory services regarding diseases and zoonoses found in poultry, fish, fur animals, game and pets.
Research focuses on developing methods for detecting pathogenic and zoonotic agents, and interactions between the host animal and the pathogen for the purpose of disease prevention and treatment.
We provide diagnostic and advisory services to farmers, practising veterinarians and public authorities; and we are part of the veterinary contingency plan for infectious diseases.
The department is the national reference laboratory for infectious diseases in poultry, fish and fur animals, and also the EU and OIE reference laboratory for fish diseases.
