The long‐term goals are to develop a formal network and tactical sciences coordinated strategy that will result in the TSN becoming an integral part of the threat awareness, detection, response, and recovery continuum, serving to protect against and mitigate the impacts of plant and animal disease, pests, and other threat vectors. The following objectives will enable TSN to achieve its goals: 1. Convene members of the TSN and identify TSN guiding principles, shared governance, and related materials. 2. Develop a Tactical Sciences coordinated strategy that includes coordinated outreach, communications, and program activities. Our strategy applies the ‘voice of the customer’ in developing trust relationships and shared strategy, exploring new ways to grow a collaborative nature, and finding more effective processes, with greater efficiency and accountability. The result is more visible programs with an enhanced value that is apparent to customers.https://tacticalsciences.org/talking-tactical/falseepisodicnopodcastWhat is the NPDN? Wait, plants get diseases?What is the NPDN? Wait, plants get diseases?Our conversation was with Drs. Jim Stack (Kansas State University) and Carrie Harmon (University of Florida) about the NPDN labs and how they uniquely document plant health issues across the country, assisting regulatory agencies when needed and building a profile of what is normal to more readily recognize what is unusual.

This committee is the primary venue for all of the state IPM programs to interact, linking the four regionally hosted multistate IPM committees.

Linking entities and agencies to detect and respond rapidly to animal disease outbreaks.We chatted with Drs. Christina (Christie) Loiacono from USDA-APHIS-Veterinary Services, Jamie Retallick (Henningson) from Kansas State University about how the NAHLN works to link animal health resources around the country to respond to crises in animal health, drawing eyes together to detect and diagnose high consequence animal diseases as quickly as possible.

Amy Omer (FDA Center For Veterinary Medicine) and Tim Sullivan (USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture), we discuss how gaining approval for disease interventions for animal species in small industry segments requires additional very special screening that would not happen without this coordinated effort with government, universities, and industry.
