Influenza: Current Trends, Pathogens, & Prevention

Course overview

In the last year, influenza has reasserted itself as a pathogen of interest for veterinarians, both large and small. With high-path avian influenza (HPAI) having infected a human in the United States for the first time in history, influenza appears to be rapidly evolving and expanding its reach from a species perspective and from a geographical standpoint. It is only a matter of time before dog owners are once again concerned about it as well. Just as the influenza pathogen continues to evolve, so, too, does vaccine technology and our understanding of the immune system and the role of each cell within. Join Dr. Jenifer Chatfield in this webinar for a discussion of replicon technology in vaccine development and the persistent evolution of influenza and where these things collide.
