Human behavior and trade affect health risk and disease spread within and across populations worldwide. The purpose of the Animal Health Economics Working Group is to provide a forum to facilitate interaction and information about the economics of animal health among interested parties. The intent is to provide a sustainable platform and/or clearing house over time for idea exchange and policy solutions. Interactions and information swapping could include posting papers, data, computer code, and providing a venue for a discussion forum.
Future activities could include targeted conferences and/or policy responses to critical problems. Please send suggestions to Dr. Thomas L. Marsh, tl_marsh@wsu.edu.
