Each WP leader would already organize talks from each of the partner involved in their own WP
All the partners are therefore invited to send abstracts of the possible oral or poster presentations they would like to share with all of us.

The establishment of a worldwide network of OIE Bluetongue Reference Laboratories will contribute to improve the knowledge of the bluetongue epidemiological situation and will support the development of a wider global bluetongue surveillance network. Such a network will also provide additional data and analysis of data on the global situation of the disease thereby increasing the efficacy of the system as a tool for international animal disease control and to facilitate international trade of animals.
