Video: Congratulations to Scott Dee | 2022 Pork Industry Distinguished Service Award Recipient
Congratulations to Dr. Scott Dee, the 2022 Pork Industry Distinguished Service Award recipient for his contributions to swine health and producers’ livelihoods.
Dee is passionate about helping producers through applied on-farm research. Several science-based biosecurity protocols used on farms today came from his studies on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus transmissibility through mechanical, aerosol and feed-based routes. Additionally, corresponding biosecurity protocols were developed, including transport sanitation, air filtration supply entry and feed mitigation.
Dee has had nearly 170 papers published in peer-reviewed journals covering transmission and biosecurity implications of PRRS, African swine fever (ASF) and other severe animal health risks.
