New Horizons in Johne's Disease Control

To shorten the time between discovery research and application of the findings in the field, the Johne's Disease Integrated Program, a USDA/CREES/NRI/CAP initiative, hosted an April 18 workshop in East Lansing, Mich. The one-day workshop featured 11 presenters and two moderators who addressed the following topics: Holstein Cow

Tangible results of JDIP interactions
Testing and best management practices
Genomics and poteomics
Current and future vaccines
MAP super-shedders
Diagnostics and strain differentiation
Johne's disease education
Status of funding
Future of Johne's disease control in the U.S.
