Institute for Animal Health

The Institute for Animal Health is a research organization dedicated to studying diseases that affect farm animals, pets, and wildlife. Its goal is to improve animal health, prevent outbreaks, and protect human health by advancing scientific understanding of animal pathogens. Located in the UK, it conducts experiments and develops vaccines, diagnostic tools, and treatments. The work helps ensure food safety, animal welfare, and supports the agricultural industry, while also reducing the risk of zoonotic diseases—those that can spread from animals to humans.
