Vakgroep Pathologie, Bacteriologie en Pluimveeziekten (UGent)
www.ugent.be/di/di05/nl www.ugent.be/di/en/departments?ugentid=DI05

De vakgroep Pathobiologie, Farmacologie en Bijzondere Dieren bestudeert gastheer-microbiële interacties, antimicrobiële resistentie en verschillende (niet-)infectieziekten bij verschillende diersoorten.

Het laboratorium voor Veterinaire Pathologie heeft expertise in onderzoek naar gunstige effecten van pre- en probionten en hun werkingsmechanismen in de mariene larvicultuur en de pathogenese van bacteriële infecties bij vissen met een focus op de huid, kieuw en darm als toegangspoort. Eerder onderzoek omvatte ook een evaluatie van de impact van pulsvisserij op een selectie van mariene vissen en ongewervelde soorten in de Noordzee en microbiële endocrinologie. Het laboratorium voor Veterinaire Pathologie heeft ook ervaring met necropsie en histopathologie van (zee)vissen en zeezoogdieren.
