1. Implementation of the "One Health" concept and species interaction studies in the context of climate change Description Directions of research:1.1. Identification of zoonoses, animal and plant pathogens, research on genetic and biological diversity of microorganisms, disease ecology, epidemiology and control.1.2. Beneficial organisms for plants and animals, interactions between micro- and macro- organisms species.1.3. Research on beneficial and harmful invertebrates in agriculture, forestry and veterinary medicine. Phenology, development cycles, factors influencing development, diversity, prevention and control of productive and parasitic insects and other invertebrates.1.4. Research on resistance of harmful organisms (pathogens, invertebrates and weeds) and development of recommendations for risk mitigation. Antimicrobial, antiparasitic resistance in productive and companion animals. New methods, including natural, plant-based pharmacy, and improved herds management for resistance risk mitigation. 1.5. Research on the morphology and health of productive and non-productive animals, food and feed safety. Postnatal development, physiological functions and health of animals, effects of animal health and application of feed additives on physiological parameters and greenhouse gas emissions, impact on food and feed quality.1.6. Research on comparative medicine, diagnostics and innovative treatment methods. Pharmacological, including plant-based, and surgical methods in treatment of productive and non-productive animals. Changes in physiological parameters after experimental hormonal and surgical manipulations. Innovation in processing of reproduction material.
