Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
'Diagnostic Innovation and Livestock (DIAL): Towards more effective and sustainable applications of antibiotics in livestock farming’, funded by the UK Research Councils, and is aimed at UK veterinary surgeons working with farmed animals. Some readers may have already received an e-mail from the BVA about this. This study aims to generate data on the current use of diagnostic tests in livestock veterinary medicine, to investigate the relationships between diagnostic testing and the use of antimicrobials, as well as to explore the potential of pen-side, on-farm and rapid diagnostics to aid antimicrobial stewardship. These data will provide a better understanding on the drivers for – and barriers to – using rapid diagnostics on farms.
