Vaccines for Poultry
The IVVN’s third annual conference, originally scheduled for March 2020 in Hanoi, Vietnam, was unfortunately cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Therefore, we decided to host the conference programme as a series of online symposia. The second of these symposiums took place on Thursday 25 February 2021, and covered Vaccines for Poultry. Co-hosted by the GCRF One Health Poultry Hub, the symposium was chaired by Professor Fiona Tomley (Royal Veterinary College, UK) and Professor Hualan Chen (Harbin Veterinary Research Institute, China), and comprised seven presentations – some invited, others selected from abstracts submitted to our postponed Hanoi conference, and two IVVN pump-priming grant awardees – as well as a poster and networking session.
