Eradication of Bovine TB: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine
5:30 pm
Dr. Damien Barrett:
The focus of the Gates foundation work is probably more in the public health sphere - people - but where there is research on TB, whether it is in people or in animals, there is probably a crossover and the technology may be shared. From the point of view of a product that would be ready to go, my understanding is that the DEFRA research is probably more advanced for something in the cattle sphere but it is not imminent.
