Advances in the knowledge of parasite resistance of ruminant hosts and parasites

Doenças causadas por parasitas internos e externos estão entre os desafios mais importantes em relação à produção animal. O uso indiscriminado de tratamento antiparasitário pode provocar forte seleção para resistência, bem como gerar resíduos de drogas nos produtos de origem animal e no ambiente.

Este cenário justificou o desenvolvimento da ESPCA - Advances in the knowledge of parasite resistance of ruminant hosts and parasites, 2011, organizada pela Embrapa Pecuária Sudeste sob a coordenação da Pesquisadora Luciana Correia de Almeida Regitano.

A ESCPA reuniu os maiores especialistas em três linhas temáticas: estratégias para utilização da resistência genética do hospedeiro; imunização do hospedeiro; estratégias para detectar e evitar o desenvolvimento de resistência pelos parasitas.

PAÍSES REPRESENTADOS POR ESTUDANTES:
Foram selecionados 42 participantes entre estudantes e profissionais, sendo 24 estrangeiros e 18 brasileiros para apoio financeiro. Os estrangeiros representavam países como Alemanha, Argentina, Bélgica, Benim, Índia, Irã, Irlanda, Nova Zelândia, Paquistão, Peru e Quênia.

PAÍSES REPRESENTADOS POR PALESTRANTES: Brasil, Estados Unidos, Austrália, Alemanha, Reino Unido e Bélgica
