Synopsis (short abstract) The Technical Meeting on Understanding Ebola Virus at the animal-human interface was convened by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to determine the current status of the scientific knowledge on Ebola Viruses (EBOV), identify the major gaps that require further research studies, in order to better understand the disease dynamics at the interface between animals and humans, identify factors that potentiate the emergence, transmission and spread of EBOV, and develop practical and realistic approaches to better prevent and minimize the impacts of this virus. It was also aimed at fostering collaborations and partnerships between institutions and organizations working on Ebola viruses at the human-animal interface. The meeting was organized by FAO and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) from 19-20 January 2016 in Rome.
