Some flyers for later this year are advertising coursesfor which final decisions have not yet been made (traditional, teleconference, or postponement) as we wait for more information on venues or meetings that they are attached to.

Avian pathology lecture by Dr. Leslie Woods
by Bruce Williams May 22, 2020

May 22, 2020

You asked for it - you got it! On May 22 at 12PM EDT, our "Free Friday Seminar" was on avian pathology. Our speaker was Professor Leslie Woods of the University of Califonia at Davis, who spoke on "My Favorite Avian Diseases. - (with a short introduction on virulent Newcastle disease by Paco Uzal) “My Favorite Avian Diseases” includes a potpourri of infectious, nutritional and toxic diseases of poultry and companion birds emphasizing gross and microscopic characteristics of the diseases. Diseases with similar gross pathological changes are compared, with distinguishing microscopic features discussed. Some may not even be distinguished microscopically and require ancillary testing for definitive diagnoses of the diseases and as a special added bonus, a brief description of the gross lesions of virulent Newcastle disease is presented by Foundation President Paco Uzal, with emphasis on those lesions that are pathognomonic for the disease and which are used as a screening to call a case compatible or not-compatible with vND. (You know we have had a low-grade outbreak in California for several years now, right?) This lecture is available on the Foundation Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/dr.bruce.williams/videos/10158657939327873/ <https://www.facebook.com/dr.bruce.williams/videos/10158657939327873/>, the Foundation YouTube channel at: https://youtu.be/gL3CK2DEkFI <https://youtu.be/gL3CK2DEkFI?fbclid=IwAR2wMxol9k6AMdQO43-s9FmKsnCrq3IB2dGix…> and as a Zoom webinar on demand at: https://us02web.zoom.us/rec/share/2vZZLYvwxlhIH7Pk723UWPF5NNSmeaa81yFK-vpfx… <https://us02web.zoom.us/rec/share/2vZZLYvwxlhIH7Pk723UWPF5NNSmeaa81yFK-vpfx…> ; Password: 5e=4qSMd
