USPOULTRY and the USPOULTRY Foundation have approved three new Board Research Initiatives (BRI) and have submitted a request for preproposals (RFP). The three BRI topics are Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale in Turkey Production, Infectious Coryza in Commercial Layers and Clostridial Diseases in Poultry.

The USPOULTRY Foundation Research Advisory Committee (FRAC) will be hosting a Zoom webinar on Sept. 25 at 1 p.m. EDT to provide an overview of the RFPs for these three BRI topics and the process for submitting a preproposal. The meeting is free and open to all researchers interested in learning more about the RFPs for these three topics. There will be an opportunity to ask specific questions to the FRAC, and the meeting will be recorded and made available afterwards. Don't miss this opportunity. The deadline to submit a preproposal is Nov. 1.
