Databases for animal and veterinary public health:
FCC has developed tools based on hand held devices linked to a central database via mobile networks or LAN. The system is Web-enabled, platform independent and quickly implemented and compliant with current EU/national legislation. This system can also be used to record data on farm livestock directly on a database such as records on animal diseases, treatments, restrictions on movement, slaughter and sale of animal products. This information is essental for enabling risk-based ante- and post-mortem inspection.

Lectures and seminars can be provided on any of the issues listed above. Outside experts might be recruited in some specific cases.
