There were some pathogens bearing zoonotic importance.To safe guard the human races along with other livestock the crux of discussion should gather an extra mileage in order to ventilate the future guidelines and course of measures.Because of the reason the profession is pertinent to the poor farmers all pieces of protective measures including bio-security of any firm should be restricted to be within the pocket size of a firmer or economical to them,otherwise all speeches and counselling in the deliberation would become confined to a mere booklet. I wish such program as AAAP 2016 a success.

as an academic staff member in avian diseases, Zagazig univ , Egypt and in continuous contact with poultry producers, we must firstly understand the causes that contributed for Emerging and Reemerging Zoonotic Diseases" and their impact on poultry industry and also different prospects in prevention and control The main topic in this concern is a- insufficient attention to research on husbandry and management practices (Biosecurity measure ) that have a bearing on spread of pathogens from flock to flock and in turn initiate the evolution of newly emerging pathogens. b- vaccination failure and vaccine failure and all the factors that conducted in this very important topic that require continuous inspection and evaluation. C- understanding the interaction between pathogens ( vaccinal or field subtypes) and their immune pathway in different avian hosts and the resulting defense or lesions. d- give a new insight on the role of every cytokine and IFN implemented in every emerged pathogen and their role in future protection of poultry health that in turn of great public concern. a lot of success for all member abeer shahin Lecturer at Vet Medicine Zagazig university Egypt
