The recent identification of a potential link between human disease and animal disease—BSE, bovine spongiform encephalopathy—has opened the potential for a zoonotic connection in this class of diseases. Also, within the last year, the containment status of the organism has been upgraded to level 3, where it was level 2 before. This provides the opportunity now in this facility, which does have this bio-containment, to have work done from both the human side and the animal side, collectively and cooperatively, in this facility.
