Fel rhan o Ganolfan Ragoriaeth Sêr Cymru ar gyfer TB mewn Gwartheg, mae labordai newydd wedi'u datblygu i wyddonwyr allu cynnal ymchwil o'r radd flaenaf i TB mewn gwartheg a milheintiau eraill.


Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cefnogi’r datblygiad gyda £3\.6m o dan Raglen Sêr Cymru II sy'n cynnwys cyllid o Gronfa Datblygu Rhanbarthol Ewropeaidd (ERDF). Mae Llywodraeth Cymru ei hun wedi neilltuo £1\.9m arall.


Arweinydd y Ganolfan yw’r Athro Glyn Hewinson, sydd wedi gweithio ar TB mewn gwartheg ers bron ddeng mlynedd ar hugain ac yn arbenigwr byd yn y maes.


Clywodd y Gweinidog fwy hefyd am hanes sefydlu'r ysgol addysg filfeddygol gyntaf yng Nghymru. Bydd yr Ysgol Gwyddor Filfeddygol yn derbyn ei myfyrwyr cyntaf ym mis Medi. Mae'r cwrs gradd hwn yn ategu cyrsiau israddedig mewn biowyddorau milfeddygol, sydd wedi'u cynnig yn Aberystwyth ers sawl blwyddyn.


Daeth yr ymweliad i ben gyda thaith o amgylch AberArloesi, y ganolfan arloesi a menter a gwblhawyd yn ddiweddar ar gampws Gogerddan y Brifysgol, sy'n cynnig cyfleusterau ac arbenigedd o'r radd flaenaf yn y sectorau biotechnoleg, amaeth\-dechnoleg a bwyd a diod.


Datblygwyd AberArloesi gyda £23\.1m o Gronfa Datblygu Rhanbarthol Ewrop drwy Lywodraeth Cymru, ac ynghyd â'r £8\.5m a £12m gan Brifysgol Aberystwyth a'r Cyngor Ymchwil Biotechnoleg a Gwyddorau Biolegol (BBSRC), mae bellach yn rhan o’r corff Ymchwil ac Arloesedd y DU.


Dywedodd y Gweinidog Materion Gwledig, Lesley Griffiths:



> "Mae wedi bod yn braf iawn cael ymweld â Phrifysgol Aberystwyth gyda Christianne Glossop, ein Prif Swyddog Milfeddygol, a gweld a chlywed am y datblygiadau cyffrous a phwysig sy'n digwydd.
> 
> 
> "Bydd y labordai newydd yn allweddol wrth gryfhau gallu ymchwilio Cymru ac mae’r Ganolfan Ragoriaeth yn hanfodol ar gyfer yr ymchwil genedlaethol a rhyngwladol i TB mewn gwartheg a’r nod o ddileu'r clefyd.
> 
> 
> "Mae hi wedi bod yn bleser cael cwrdd â'r Athro Hewinson, arweinydd y ganolfan a gŵr uchel iawn ei barch yma a thramor. Bydd ei arweiniad a'i arbenigedd yn hanfodol nawr ac yn y dyfodol.
> 
> 
> "Roedd hefyd yn wych gweld y gwaith sydd wedi’i wneud ar Ysgol Gwyddor Filfeddygol gyntaf Cymru, mewn partneriaeth â'r Coleg Milfeddygol Brenhinol, Llundain. Rwy'n siŵr y bydd ganddi ddyfodol cryf ac y bydd yn gaffaeliad i'n sector amaethyddol a'n proffesiwn milfeddygol."


Dywedodd yr Athro Colin McInnes, Dirprwy Is\-Ganghellor Ymchwil Prifysgol Aberystwyth:



> "Roedd Prifysgol Aberystwyth yn falch iawn o gael croesawu'r Gweinidog Materion Gwledig, Lesley Griffiths.
> 
> 
> "Mae gan y Brifysgol hanes hir a balch o ymchwil arloesol i fynd i'r afael ag anghenion cymunedau a busnesau gwledig yng Nghymru a thros y byd.
> 
> 
> "Bydd datblygu cyfleusterau newydd, gan gynnwys Ysgol Filfeddygol gyntaf Cymru, labordai o'r radd flaenaf, ac AberArloesi yng Ngogerddan, yn golygu newid mawr yn ein gweithgarwch, gan atgyfnerthu lle Aberystwyth fel un o'r safleoedd ymchwil mwyaf blaenllaw yn y byd."


Meddai'r Athro Glyn Hewinson, Pennaeth Canolfan Ragoriaeth Sêr Cymru ar gyfer TB Mewn Gwartheg ym Mhrifysgol Aberystwyth:



> "Roeddem yn falch iawn o gael croesawu'r Gweinidog a Phrif Swyddog Milfeddygol Cymru i Ganolfan Ragoriaeth Sêr Cymru ar gyfer TB Mewn Gwartheg ym Mhrifysgol Aberystwyth a rhannu â nhw ein gweledigaeth a’r gwaith rydym wedi'i wneud a chael deall yn well sut y gallem weithio gyda’n gilydd yn fwy effeithiol i ddileu TB mewn gwartheg yng Nghymru."

As part of the Sêr Cymru Centre of Excellence for Bovine TB, a new suite of laboratories have been completed which will allow scientists to conduct world\-class research into bovine TB and other zoonotic diseases.


The development is backed by £3\.6m from the Welsh Government under the Sêr Cymru II Programme which includes European Regional Development Funding (ERDF). The Welsh Government has also provided a further £1\.9m.


The Centre is led by Professor Glyn Hewinson, who has worked on bovine tuberculosis for nearly thirty years and is a world\-renowned expert in the field.


The Minister also heard more about the University establishing the first veterinary education facility in Wales with the School of Veterinary Science first intake of students taking place this September. This degree course complements undergraduate courses in veterinary biosciences, which have been offered at Aberystwyth for several years.


The visit concluded with a tour of AberInnovation, the recently completed centre for innovation and enterprise at the University’s Gogerddan campus, which offers world\-leading facilities and expertise within the biotechnology, agri\-tech and food and drink sectors.


AberInnovation was developed with £23\.1m funding from the European Regional Development Fund through the Welsh Government, and together with the £8\.5m and £12m from Aberystwyth University and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), it has since become part of UK Research and Innovation.


Rural Affairs Minister, Lesley Griffiths said:



> “It has been great to visit Aberystwyth University with Christianne Glossop, our Chief Veterinary Officer, and to see and hear about the exciting and important developments taking place.
> 
> 
> “The new laboratories will be key in strengthening Wales’ research capacity with the Centre of Excellence vital for national and international research on bovine tuberculosis with the aim of eradicating the disease.
> 
> 
> “I was very pleased to meet with Professor Hewinson who is leading the centre and is held in extremely high regard both here and abroad. His leadership and expertise will be crucial now and in the future.
> 
> 
> “It was also great to see progress on Wales’ first School of Veterinary Science, which is being delivered in partnership with the Royal Veterinary College, London. I am sure it will have a strong future which will benefit our agricultural sector and veterinary profession.”


Professor Colin McInnes, Pro Vice\-Chancellor for Research at Aberystwyth University said:



> “Aberystwyth University was delighted to welcome the Rural Affairs Minister, Lesley Griffiths.
> 
> 
> “The University has a long and proud history of cutting\-edge research addressing the needs of rural communities and businesses in Wales and internationally.
> 
> 
> “The development of new facilities, including Wales' first Veterinary School, world\-class laboratories, and AberInnovation at Gogerddan, will enable a step change in activity, reinforcing Aberystwyth's place as one of the leading research sites globally.”


Professor Glyn Hewinson, Head of the Sêr Cymru Centre of Excellence for Bovine TB at Aberystwyth University said:



> “We were delighted to welcome the Minister and the Chief Veterinary Officer for Wales to the Sêr Cymru Centre of Excellence for Bovine TB at Aberystwyth University and share with them our vision, the progress we have made and to gain a greater understanding of how we might work together most effectively to eradicate bovine tuberculosis from Wales.”
