| 3/22/25 | Preventing an outbreak: H5N1 in dairy cattle with Dr. Murray Gillies and Dr. Henry Ceelen. Animal Health Insights miniseries, Ep 1, February 13, 2025 | Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) is a contagious viral disease that continues to impact domestic and wild birds. In March of 2024, HPAI was detected in dairy cattle in Texas, and has since spread rapidly across the United States. To date, it has not been detected in Canada in cattle. In this new miniseries, Dr. Murray Gillies, a veterinarian and the Interim Division Director for the Canadian Animal Health Surveillance System, and Dr. Henry Ceelen, a bovine veterinarian and Secretary Treasurer for the Canadian Association of Bovine Veterinarians, join Dr. Steven Roche of ACER Consulting to discuss HPAI in dairy cattle, including disease presentation, spread, and prevention, as well as the Canadian response.

| 6/12/24 | Les vilains moustiques sous surveillance avec Dre Antoinette Ludwig et Marc Avramov. Perspectives en santé animale, Ep. 24b, 11 Jun 2024 | Les moustiques sont porteurs et contribuent à la propagation d’une variété de conditions infectieuses à une variété d’espèces - il est donc important pour la santé publique et la santé animale de garder ”l’œil dans le ciel” et de surveiller leurs mouvements, leur propagation et leurs préférences en matière d’habitat. Heureusement, le Canada dispose d’un groupe de chercheurs qui surveillent et d’étudient ce phénomène. Dre Antoinette Ludwig, vétérinaire et épidémiologiste au Laboratoire national de microbiologie de l’Agence de la santé publique du Canada, et Marc Avramov, candidat au doctorat à l’Université Carlton, étudient les maladies transmises par les moustiques et le risque qu’elles représentent pour les populations humaines et animales, ainsi que l’impact du changement climatique sur ces maladies. | 29m 41s | ||||||

| 6/14/23 | Gérer nos microbes en commun: l’approche une seule santé, la résistance aux antimicrobiens et les animaux de ferme. avec Dr Mohamed Rhouma. Perspectives en santé animale, Ep. 23b, 14 Jun 2023 | Le Dr Mohamed Rhouma, vétérinaire, microbiologiste et professeur adjoint à la Faculté de médecine vétérinaire de l’Université de Montréal, a voulu comprendre comment ces changementsconcernant la manière dont les antimicrobiens, en particulier les antibiotiques, peuvent être prescrits, délivrés et utilisés pour la gestion des maladies des animaux d’élevage, ont affecté la surveillance de l’utilisation des antimicrobiens et le développement de la résistance aux antimicrobiens chez les animaux d’élevage - et faire le point sur les connaissances actuelles en lien avec le rôle des animaux de production dans la propagation de la résistance aux antimicrobiens aux humains dans une perspective One Health. Dans ce but, Dr Rhouma et ses collègues de l’Université de Montréal et de l’Université de Gand (Belgique) ont effectué une revue de l’état actuel des connaissances sur ce sujet sous la forme d’un article qui a été publié dans la revue Veterinary sciences en septembre 2022. | 28m 58s | ||||||

| 7/21/22 | Where the Wild Pigs Are with Corey Kramer. Animal Health Insights, Ep. 17. July 21, 2022 | Wild pigs are known to wreak environmental havoc across all types of landscapes, and they can be difficult to find, let alone to manage once they’re established in an area. Information about the habitats that Canadian wild pigs utilize can help inform decisions about how best to manage wild pig populations, and perhaps may also be useful to decrease crop damage or livestock interactions at the wildlife-agricultural interface. Mr. Corey Kramer, previously a masters student from the University of Saskatchewan, and currently a Biology PhD student at San Diego State University, investigated the habitat use and movements of wild pigs in Canada, and shares the results from this research with us on Animal Health Insights. | 30m 29s | ||||||
