Thematic Module 2

Although many zoonoses have been eliminated in most European countries, emerging pathogens represent a constant risk to the health of humans, wildlife and domestic animals. Living in a densely populated and highly mobile world allows pathogens to spread, adapt and emerge. TM2 presents concrete examples of the prevention and control of infectious diseases, with particular emphasis on zoonoses. The impact of the collapse of biodiversity and biosecurity needs are also addressed.

Day 1: ecology of zoonotic diseases
Day 2: systemic approach to infectious diseases
