The success of the HLDA workshops was based on good co-ordination, high-quality work and collective effort by the veterinary immunology community, as well as results from past species-specific CD workshops supported by IUIS VIC. A barrier to formal international collaboration was lifted in 2013 when USDA/NIFA and BBSRC launched a pilot call to support animal disease research of strategic importance to both the US and UK which included the development of veterinary immunological reagents for agriculturally-relevant animal species. To date, the concept of the veterinary immunological toolbox has largely (but not exclusively) focused on reagent development for livestock species due to their strategic relevance for funders with a stake in livestock health, food safety and global food security. ./cache/cord-304623-j9ay4jkf.txt ./txt/cord-304623-j9ay4jkf.txt
