Special Interest Group Workshop - MRSA

Med-Vet-Net MRSA Emerging and Neglected Zoonosis Group


We would like to announce a workshop for all those interested in the burgeoning area of MRSA as a potential zoonotic agent. The workshop will be held on Saturday 30th June 2007 at the Med-Vet-Net Annual Scientific Meeting, between 08.30am and 10.30 am: please check the Conference Programme for further details.


The aim of this workshop is to develop, promote and take forward potential paths of research that can be moulded into a consortium bid for the upcoming deadlines for the FP7 funding call. Specifically, we need to identify potential calls that we can answer, decide if we need to lobby for a more specific funding call and identify the important/relevant branches of research that will aid a successful bid. Importantly we need to identify leaders for various areas and potential consortium members. This is an excellent opportunity to network with people you know and meet those you don’t and hopefully formulate future research collaborations.

If you are unable to attend the meeting but you are interested in a role within the consortium then please feel free to contact me via email (m.fielder@kingston.ac.uk) and I will present/include your comments and contributions at the Lucca workshop.
In the meanwhile I would like to thank those of you who have already contacted me in the past few months. We anticipate that this forthcoming workshop will enable us to work together and take this exciting area forward. I look forward to seeing you all!

Mark Fielder
