主題：Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae: from understanding virulence towards eradication
Prof. Paul LangfordPhD. Professor Professor of Paediatric Infectious Diseases Imperial College London
Abstract: In regard to antimicrobial resistance we have focussed on the pig pathogen A. pleuropneumoniae and developed high throughput genome wide mutagenesis protocols and screens (based on Transposon Directed Insertion site Sequencing [TraDIS]) to identify genes essential for growth in vitro and in vivo, with a view to developing novel antimicrobial and vaccine strategies. The methods developed are applicable to other pathogenic members of the Pasteurellaceae i.e. Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, H. influenzae, Mannheimia haemolytica, and P. multocida.
