Bone fractures are a significant problem in Thoroughbred racehorses. The risk of fracture is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. To determine the biological processes that are affected in genetically susceptible horses, we utilised...

Can biosecurity on farms reduce bovine tuberculosis risks in cattle in England? A review of observational and literature‐based evidence (2025)
Journal Article
Voller, C., Perrin, L. D., Gibbens, J. C., Donnelly, C. A., Delahay, R. J., Heasman, L., Vial, F., Prosser, A., Heard, J., Robertson, A., Brunton, L., Enticott, G., & Downs, S. H. (2025). Can biosecurity on farms reduce bovine tuberculosis risks in cattle in England? A review of observational and literature‐based evidence. Veterinary Record, 196(1), https://doi.org/10.1002/vetr.4912

Background
Bovine tuberculosis (TB) is a burden to cattle farming in Great Britain. Poor biosecurity has been identified as contributing to the epidemic.

Methods
We conducted a systematic review of epidemiological studies published in the scient... Read More about Can biosecurity on farms reduce bovine tuberculosis risks in cattle in England? A review of observational and literature‐based evidence.
