COMPARE, a large EU project intends to speed up the detection of, and response to disease outbreaks among humans and animals worldwide, through the use of new genome technology. The aim is to reduce the impact and cost of disease outbreaks. To that end, 28 European partners, led by Technical University of Denmark and Erasmus Medical Center Rotterdam have received 20 million euro in funding from the Horizon 2020 program of the European Commission.
