Epidemiology, food safety and public health

The WCVM is recognized for its expertise and research activity in the areas of epidemiology, food safety and public health. Faculty are involved in research that addresses One Health, infectious disease, water security and food security — all major signature areas of research at the U of S.

Their research focuses on everything from zoonotic diseases of companion animals in northern rural, remote or First Nations communities to epidemiological factors affecting the health and productivity of cow-calf herds. In 2016 this group created the U of S Centre for Applied Epidemiology, which provides statistical and experiment design support to the WCVM Disease Investigation Unit and to faculty, undergraduate summer research students and graduate students.
