Collaborates with employees from various branches of Danish animal production, private veterinarians and farmers, the pharmaceutical industry and various NGOs (within EcoHealth, One Health and community development), typically through externally funded projects.

The representatives of these companies or organizations are either partners in the projects or sit on advisory committees in the projects. Written collaboration agreements/contracts determine the responsibilities and rights between the partners to support responsible conduct of research and advisory functions.

In all these matters, Liza acts as an employee of the University of Copenhagen and receives no remuneration from the external partners.

She sometimes receives payment for lectures, seminars or courses given to, for example, veterinarians in private organizations, agriculture or pharmaceutical companies, or for speaking for private national or international companies or organisations (e.g. the veterinary associations in Denmark, Finland and the Netherlands).
