Summary
Australian Biosecurity Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) for Emerging Infectious Disease (Australian Biosecurity CRC) was formed in November 2003 following the award of a seven year research grant to a consortium of research organisations, livestock industry groups, and Government agencies. Its key objectives were to protect Australia's public health, livestock, wildlife and economic resources through research and education that strengthens the national capability to detect, diagnose, identify, monitor, assess, predict and respond to emerging infectious disease threats which impact on national and regional biosecurity. The Australian Biosecurity Cooperative Research Centre for Emerging Infectious Disease completed its funding term under the Australian Government's Cooperative Research Centres Program on 30 June 2010.
