One Health Models of Infectious Disease Symposium Symposium and panel discussion Edinburgh Infectious Diseases is developing an application to the Wellcome Trust for a doctoral training programme (DTP) on ‘One Health Models of Infectious Diseases’. To showcase existing research in Edinburgh, and to facilitate discussion about design of the new DTP, Edinburgh Infectious Diseases is hosting a half-day symposium on the afternoon of Tuesday 23 October. The afternoon will conclude with a panel discussion led by Ross Fitzgerald (Director of Edinburgh Infectious Diseases) and Kenny Baillie. Programme Time Speaker Title 12:45 Registration 13:00 Ross Fitzgerald (Director Edinburgh Infectious Diseases, Roslin Institute) Introduction: One Health Models of Infectious Diseases 13:10 Christine Tait-Burkard (Roslin Institute) Engineering resistance to disease in livestock 13:30 Kenny Baillie (Anaesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine and Roslin Institute) Gene-level pharmaceutical target validation in large animals 13:50 Finn Grey (Roslin Institute) Identification of host genes underpinning pathogen resistance in livestock species 14:10 Jayne Hope (Roslin Institute) Defining signature responses at the innate-adaptive interface to inform vaccine design 14:30 Coffee 15:00 Andrea Wilson (Roslin Institute ) Statistical modelling of health trajectories 15:20 Kev Dhaliwal (Centre for Inflammation Research) Embedding Innovation, Technology and Interdisciplinarity into One Health-transferable models 15:40 Sarah Chan (Director, Mason Institute for Medicine, Life Sciences and the Law) Exploring the ethical and social dimensions of One Health 16:00 Panel discussion One Health Models of Infectious Diseases Doctoral Training Programme 17:00 CLOSE Doctoral Training Programme in One Health Models of Infectious Disease The overall aim of the DTP is to provide state-of-the-art training in models of infection and relevant technique, applied to world-leading science informing both animal and human health. The DTP will be built on our leading medical and vet schools, and the world class animal sciences Roslin Institute, with expertise in genomics of livestock and pathogens. Edinburgh also has cutting-edge expertise in genome editing of large animals, including sheep and goats, and in genome-wide editing of human, bovine, porcine and chicken primary and secondary cell lines for understanding host-pathogen interactions. In addition we aim to utilise the facilities available at the Wellcome Trust-funded Large Animal Research and Imaging Facility (LARIF). Large Animal Research and Imaging Facility All welcome! We very much hope that you will be able to attend and look forward to hearing your ideas for developing an effective DTP.
