The team focuses on important infectious pathogens that threaten the health and life safety of companion animals and economic small animals, such as rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus, canine distemper virus, feline panleukopenia virus, feline calicivirus, feline coronavirus, mycoplasma and chlamydia. Study the pathogenesis of these important infectious agents, develop safe and effective new vaccines, diagnostic reagents and therapeutic biological products, to establish an effective companion animal biosecurity prevention and control technology system.

Current research focuses on:

1) Epidemiological investigation of important infectious diseases of companion animals and research on key technologies for prevention and control;

2) Vaccine development for important infectious diseases in companion animals;

3) R&D of immunomodulatory biologics for companion animals;

4) Study on pathogenic mechanism and immune escape mechanism of important infectious diseases of companion animals;

5) Research on rapid and accurate detection technology of foodborne pathogenic bacteria.
