Tracking Aquatic Animal Diseases: the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Centre for Aquatic Animal Health Research and Diagnostics (CAAHRD)

摘要

Preventing the spread of aquatic animal diseases within Canada and guarding against the introduction of exotic pathogens from other countries is critical to safeguarding the health of Canada's aquatic resources and our multi-billion dollar export market in fish and seafood products. In an ongoing effort to reduce the incidence of these diseases, Fisheries and Oceans Canada's (DFO's) Centre for Aquatic Animal Health Research and Diagnostics (CAAHRD) oversees a virtual network of scientists involved in a variety of research in support of the National Aquatic Animal Health Program (NAAHP).
