The Davis-Thompson Foundation has a new Tresurer!
by Francisco A. Uzal Sept. 21, 2020

Sept. 21, 2020

Dear all It is an immense honor and privilege to announce that Bruce Williams has been unanimously elected to the position of Treasurer of the Davis/Thompson Foundation. Bruce has worked tirelessly for many years as the CEO of the Foundation and before as its president. During this time, he has been the driving force behind providing workshops, seminars and training courses in Veterinary Pathology, both locally and globally, travelling extensively himself and championing other pathologists of all ages, genders and races. His outstanding leadership and organizational skills have been fundamental in solidifying the Foundation’s reputation as the number one organization promoting the teaching of Veterinary Pathology in the world. Under his direction, the Foundation has gone from strength to strength with each passing year and, in these very difficult times, reminded stronger than ever. As the realities of COVID hit, Bruce was swift to recognize not only the necessity but also the great potential of online delivery and very quickly figured out the best way to get it done. We are now able to offer an enormous number of webinars and courses worldwide, and reach a substantially increased audience as a consequence of his efforts. If you know Bruce at all, you will know that he works unremittingly and is available for the Foundation 24/7. Pathologists young and old look to him as a model of what hard work, a good heart and a strong vision for the future can achieve. I am proud to be his friend and colleague and look forward to many years of collaboration to come. Rest assured that Bruce will be working just as hard and resolutely as your Treasurer, even though he may not be quite as visible as before, and we remain in very good hands. Congratulations Bruce, we wish you the very best in your new role. Kind regards Paco Uzal

The Davis-Thompson Foundation has a new Chief Executive Officer!
by Bruce Williams Sept. 21, 2020

Sept. 21, 2020

It is my great pleasure to announce for the third time in its 47 year history, the Charles Louis Davis and Samuel Wesley Thompson Foundation has a new Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Francisco (Paco) Uzal. A member of our Board of Directors for over fifteen years, Paco has risen through the ranks, being the architect of the Latin Comparative Pathology Group (LCPG, aka the Foundation’s Latin American Division), the first LCPG President, and ultimately, the Foundation’s first Vice-President for Latin American Affairs. His work, often self-funded, established Divisions in Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, Peru, and held courses in many others. Three years ago, he was elected President of the Foundation by the Foundation's Board, and has excelled in that job, overseeing the Foundation's courses all over the world, (which have ranged up to 50 in some years), as well as being the primary architect in the Foundation's response to the 2020 pandemic, expertly and quickly pivoting from in-person to virtual seminars, while most organizations were still trying to figure whether they would even be capable of having meetings. He has also served twice during that time as the President of the Latin Comparative Pathology Group, not only establishing it, but also establishing it as one of the best-regarded pathology educational organizations throughout Latin America. During his entire time as a member of the Foundation's board and its president, he has lectured for us around the world many times on topics ranging from diseases of horse and ruminants, gastrointestinal disease, and descriptive pathology, and is most assuredly one of our most popular speakers. Superlatives fail to do justice to Paco’s contributions to the field of veterinary pathology, and to the education of all those who practice it, especially those who are in the early stages of their career. It has been my great pleasure to work side by side with him in a shared vision of pathology education for everyone around the world, and it is my great honor to call him a friend. As a friend, I am posting a short bio below (to his great chagrin, as one of the most humble men I know) for those few pathologists around the world who have not had the good fortune to meet him. The position of Foundation CEO and the Chairman of its Board is one that is a career in the making, and a position that is a second career in itself. It calls for men and women of vision, and provides years of service to fulfill that singular individual's vision. Those of us who do it don't do it as a career box check, but because we are driven to improve global education in veterinary pathology, and to give back far more than we have been given, all the while allowing others to collect the credit and accolades. It is a job conducted largely off the stage And so, to the members and friends of the Foundation, I present your new Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Paco Uzal. ********** Francisco A. Uzal, DVM, MSc, PhD, Dipl. ACVP, is a Professor of Diagnostic Pathology and Branch Chief of the San Bernardino Laboratory of the California Animal Health and Food Safety, UCDavis. He is a leading expert on clostridial diseases of animals with special emphasis in enteric diseases. Dr. Uzal has published ~ 250 articles in peer reviewed journals. He is the senior author of the chapter on “Alimentary Diseases”, for the 6th edition of “Jubb, Kennedy and Palmer’s Pathology of Domestic Animals” (2015, Elsevier), and the first author of the recently published textbook on Clostridial diseases of animals (2016, Wiley and Blackwell). He is a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Pathologists and a member of the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians. Dr Uzal is an Associated Editor and Photo Editor of the Journal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation and Anaerobe and member of the editorial board of several other journals. He has been the coordinator of the Post-mortem Program for the California Horse Racing Board for the past 12 years. He is currently the Vice-President of the Davis/Thompson Foundation and president-elect of the Latin Comparative Pathology Group. Over the past 15+ years he has mentored a large number of Latinamerican veterinarians and vet students visiting his laboratory in California and lectured in many countries of Latin America, Europe, Asia and Oceania. He received the 2016 Life Achievement Award from HENAA for his contributors to education in science and technology.

"Pathogen Discovery and Proof of Causality" - Next TUESDAY, Sept 22
by Bruce Williams Sept. 17, 2020

Sept. 17, 2020

[image: pathogendiscoveryB.jpg] Our technology workshops and seminars have been a huge hit with everyone from residents getting into the field to the old geezers like me who want to see what you young folks are up to! (Who remembers Koch's postulates? Ol' Bobby Koch is out like last weeks' newspapers - and he was miserable to start with!) Well, there's new, better, and faster way to identify pathogens and prove they are at the root of a new disease these days - and we are bringing you four speakers who are doing this on a regular basis - they've had the triumphs and made the mistakes, and they are going to share them with you, next Tuesday, September 22. Doesn't "(INSERT YOUR SURNAME HERE)'s Syndrome" sound great?!!!" (No, it doesn't because we are veterinary pathologists, and we don't do that! Grow up!) But you are still going to want to hear all about next generation sequencing, real-time PCR and other high tech ways to sort through potential pathogens in quick order! It's only $50 for a full day's worth of RACE-accredited CE, and this lecture is also good for 4 credits toward ACVP MOC. You are invited to a Zoom webinar on Sep 22, 2020 07:00 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada).

Fridays Free Seminars from the Davis-Thompson Foundation - THIS FIDAY!
by Bruce Williams Sept. 16, 2020

Sept. 16, 2020

We have two exciting free seminars for you coming starting in 48 hours! Do you know what pain looks like? Hurts me to admit it, but I don't either. But our speaker at this Friday's Free Webinar does! This Friday at 1200PM EDT, Dr. LaTasha Crawford, VMD, PhD, DACVP of The Crawford Lab at the University of Wisconsin School of Veterinary Medicine will discuss "Anatomic Correlates of Pain - Advances and Opportunities in Sensory Pathology". Despite widespread prevalence of pain in patients of every species, there are still major gaps in our ability to diagnose or treat pain and sensory dysfunction. Building on her multifaceted background as a veterinary pathologist and neuroscientist, Dr. Crawford will share the wondrous heterogeneity of the sensory system that sets the landscape for her own research in pain mechanisms. This includes key findings that have emerged from mechanistic studies of rodent models of pain as well as the persisting gaps in our knowledge of sensory neuron pathology. Register in advance for this webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_eNADz8t5QSy0t9MZdp33OQ <https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_eNADz8t5QSy0t9MZdp33OQ?fbclid=I…> AND: Still confused about bone? Well, we can't fix that in one lecture, but this Friday evening/Saturday morning Australian Seminar Series lecture by Dr. Brian Murphy, DVM, PhD, DACVP and Associate Professor at the University of California at Davis - "In pursuit of a sense of bone", may fill in a few more pieces of the puzzle. This lecture is available at the following slew of times - 10AM Saturday in Perth/8AM Saturday in Sydney/8PM Friday in Los Angeles/5PM Washington DC. Register in advance for this webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_yr68ZY8sSYGmItiofM9xDA <https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_yr68ZY8sSYGmItiofM9xDA?fbclid=I…> After registering for either seminar, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

by Bruce Williams Sept. 12, 2020

Sept. 12, 2020

Save the Date for our first online General Pathology Review Course - Course Directors Patty Pesavento and Jose Vilches-Moure are cooking up something special for 2021. Attendees will have TWO options for 2021 - attend the live broadcasts, interact with the instructors, and participate in the panel discussions, or view lecture rebroadcasts for a limited period following the course. Both options come with course materials and RACE credits. Interactive participation in the live broadcast is strongly recommended for those taking the ACVP phase 1 certification examination, and seating is limited to 100 to ensure a beneficial experience, while the rebroadcasted lectures will be sufficient for those who are looking for general knowledge, a refresher, or for whom the time zone (Pacific Standard Time) poes an insurmountable problem. Additional details for the course, including the faculty, topics, and Zoom registration info will be available in a matter of weeks.
