This is a very interesting presentation for a number of reasons - prime among which is the fact that a number of very influential international organisations and funders are taking the notion of "One Health" very seriously.
That is, the development of reagents and vaccines that can be used for agents that cause both animal and human diseases, such as avian influenza, Nipah and Hendra and Rift Valley fever viruses, and so on.
Great idea - and one we are trying to address with making such things in plants!
