Research Project:
DEVELOPMENT OF METHODOLOGY FOR APPLICATION TO FOREIGN ANIMAL DISEASE DIAGNOSTICS, SURVEILLANCE, DETECTION, CONTROL AND ERADICATION
Project Number: 1940-32000-052-07
Project Type:
Nonfunded Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jul 01, 2008
End Date: Jun 30, 2010
Objective:
The Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) lab located at the University of California, Davis is currently compiling extensive global disease surviellance data and is developing a global web-based disease surviellance system, which has resulted in the FMD BioPortal, a publically-available site. The objective of this collaboration is to expand the UC Davis FMD BioPortal and to provide epidemiological information to ARS, PIADC to aid in current FMD research.
Approach:
1. ARS, PIADC will provide sequencing data and analysis of field isolates of viruses made available through UC Davis. This data will be incorporated into the BioPortal.
2. UC Davis will provide epidemiological expertise to ARS, PIADC to further basic and applied research.
