The Center for Agriculture and Food Security and Preparedness hosted a week-long training course about Foreign Animal and Emerging Diseases (FAED) on August 13-15, 2013. FAED trainings are held in Knoxville, TN. This event is held every other year and is jointly sponsored with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and includes speakers with international expertise on foreign animal and emerging diseases as well as researchers from Plum Island Animal Disease Center.
This training course will provide an excellent opportunity to enhance awareness of foreign animal and emerging diseases for veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and extension agents. Other allied professionals who are responsible for foreign animal disease outbreak control and/or response will find the training beneficial. Individuals in private practice, academia, industry, and government are encouraged to attend.
