Targeted research effort on African swine fever (ASFORCE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
"African Swine Fever (ASF) is a devastating disease affecting swine caused by a complex virus, the only member of the Asfarviridae family.

"Development of Vaccines for bTV, EHDV and AHSV" (ORBIVAC)
Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2014,
"The major outstanding challenges of orbivirus vaccine research is to develop vaccines that can afford a broad protective immune response against as many serotypes of each virus as possible, and to develop a high throughput DIVA assay (e.g. an ELISA). This project will use a coordinated multipartner approach to address these issues, to develop new experimental prototype vaccines and diagnostic app ...

Improve tools and strategies for the prevention and control of classical swine fever (CSFV_goDIVA)
Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
Although classical swine fever (CSF) has been eradicated in wide areas within the EU the disease is endemic in some new member states particularly in back yard pigs. In order to improve the eradication strategies the project aims are a) the final development and testing of a live marker vaccine candidate for the prevention and improved control of CSF, both orally and intramuscularly applicable; b) ...
