Joke van der Giessen explained how priority setting of emerging zoonoses is approached in The Netherlands by an advanced method of expert elicitation. Ana Rita Domingues and Christine Little presented their work on source attribution, a rapidly developing research field in risk research. Jacob Simonsen showed results from Workpackage 32 on the frequency of seroconversion against Salmonella and the lack of seasonal fluctuations of antibody concentrations, which sheds an interesting light on the frequency and (lack of) seasonality of human exposure. Adam Brouwer presented British work on the effectiveness of GB cattle surveillance in detecting new epidemic strains of Salmonella, and Wilfrid van Pelt gave an excellent overview of the geographic association between livestock densities and incidence of human Escherichia coli 157 in The Netherlands, suggesting an elevated risk in rural areas with high cattle densities. Chair: Maarten Nauta (Food DTU)
