Abstract

The discipline of veterinary epidemiology focuses on the investigation of the dynamics, frequency, and determinants of diseases in populations of veterinary interest. Epidemiological methods are continuously changing, as new tools and techniques become available, often borrowed from other disciplines and adapted to veterinary science objectives. Therefore, there is a need for epidemiologists to become acquainted with both existing and emerging methods to take advantage of all available approaches to support the prevention and control of disease in animal populations.
