IMMUNOLOGY LABORATORY

The research topics of Immunology Laboratory are focus on diseases surveillance, pathogen genotype and serotype identification and evolution, infection mechanisms, and prevention and control strategies, especially targeted on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus, porcine circovirus type 2, porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, Haemophillus parasuis, Streptococcus suis, and Mycoplasma sp. Besides, for cultivate the veterinary specialized in swine to fit the rapid growth of swine industry, Immunology Laboratory also devote our efforts to integrate all the resources on swine medicine resident training recently.
