The aim is to share experiences on livestock tick control and share recent research results. Specific focus will be given to the need for standardization of tick vaccine trials, experimental models and integrated control through combination with other approaches including genetic and acaricide approaches. The
workshop is targeted at researchers, tick control decision makers, research funders and industry
to jointly unravel the complexities of this critical field and work towards sustainable solutions.

There will be room for discussion and the end goal is to develop a scientific target product
profile (S-TPP) for the ultimate cattle tick vaccine and discuss how we can standardize tick vaccine
trials. A draft S-TPP will be shared after the workshop with participants to comment and finally a
publication.
