・Knowledge and understanding regarding the mechanism of animal and plant production in fields and relation between animals and the human society and natural environment.

Class Objectives
/Class Outline Infections of pathogenic microorganisms have a direct threat to the health of animals (including humans), but infections in livestock can also cause indirect health problems in humans through milk, meat, and other livestock products. This lecture will outline what infectious diseases are present in livestock and how they protect the health of animals (including humans).

Class Schedule lesson1 General Introduction, Changes in Control of Infectious Diseases in Livestock
Explain what infectious diseases are. Explanation of how infectious diseases that have been a problem in the past have been solved or are about to be solved
lesson2 Infectious diseases of livestock caused by viruses
Properties of causative microorganisms and diseases will be explained.
Lesson 3: Infectious diseases of livestock caused by bacteria
Explain the characteristics of causative microorganisms and diseases
lesson4  Infectious diseases of domestic animals caused by other microorganisms (mycoplasma, fungi, parasites, etc.)
Explain the characteristics of causative microorganisms and diseases

lesson5  Japanese system to protect livestock from spread of infectious diseases
Explain about malignant infectious diseases in foreign countries and the law for prevention of livestock infectious diseases
lesson6  Japanese system to prevent health hazards originating from livestock products
Explain the system to protect food safety in Japan from the viewpoint of public health

lesson7 Emerging infectious diseases and their relationship with animals
Explain how animals are involved in infectious diseases that are newly recognized and have become a public health problem locally or internationally.
lesson8 Challenges in controlling infectious diseases of livestock
Provide an overview of current issues in the control of infectious diseases in livestock.

Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review Cultivate an interest in infectious diseases discussed in newspapers and in the news; voluntarily research why these infections pose problems. It is advisable to study the human diseases that you have had so far. Similar diseases will increase your understanding, as animals also have them. Lastly, rather than memorizing the items learned in class, understand their applicability in implementing countermeasures against infectious diseases to humans and animals by reviewing the characteristics of each pathogen.
