What drives you to work on Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae elimination?
Antemortem Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae diagnostic strategies have long been a source of frustration for swine veterinarians. The challenge of developing science-based approaches that support the success of M. hyopneumoniae eradication programs, and the sustainability of pork production, drive me to do the collaborative work we do.
