1. Name of group: Control of Infectious diseases of ruminants
2. Introduction: The research group focuses on the molecular epidemiology investigation of infectious diseases in cattle and sheep, while conducting in-depth studies on the hosts and transmission vectors of emerging infectious diseases. They also carry out research on detection methods, vaccine development, and preventive and control measures related to these diseases.
3. Name of PI: Hongfei Shi
4. Research fields: The molecular mechanisms of interspecies transmission and pathogenicity changes of Pestivirus H; investigation on the transmission vectors of hemotropic mycoplasma; molecular evolution patterns of GBS.
