Only 250/1000 seats remain for "Black Voices in Pathology virtual seminar
by Bruce Williams June 28, 2020

June 28, 2020

The Davis-Thompson Foundation wholeheartedly and without reservation supports the Black Lives Matter movement. Since our inception in 1970, our tenets have always included that the Foundation does not discriminate against race. It is all well and good for an organization to issue a statement that says that they support Black Lives Matter, but we in the Foundation believe that now is a time for meaningful change. Our “Black Voices in Pathology” seminar on July 28 is only a first step. Our already diverse Board of Directors currently seats two black veterinary pathologists, Dr. Tiffany Lyle, head of our Correspondence Division and Dr. Lonzy Ojok of the University of Harare. We are adding a third prominent black pathologist, Dr. Angela Brice of the University of Pennsylvania, as a permanent ad hoc member to oversee all of the Foundation’s business from an inclusion and diversity standpoint. We look forward to working closely with her, and translating her ideas and input into programs that will better serve all of our members around the world. Beyond this seminar on Black Voices in Pathology, we will be having additional seminars, both day-seminars and our free Friday seminars which will highlight black pathologists and those in other minorities, whose voices are not always heard in our profession. It is our goal that one or more Friday seminars each month will be presented by a black pathologist or member of another minority group. This initiative is not only one that will be important for the Foundation in the United States, but one that we believe will translate well in all corners of the globe where the Foundation educates its members. In order to introduce our “Black Voices in Pathology” to its largest possible audience, we are providing a full day of free RACE CE to attendees. We also hope that our colleagues and friends will share this flyer within their veterinary schools, as this slate of speakers are an inspiring group and we hope many veterinary students will be part of this audience. Register in advance for this webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_T_i09oihTuW0xEx8vbiPXg <https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_T_i09oihTuW0xEx8vbiPXg?fbclid=I…>After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar. Bruce Williams, DVM CEO, Davis-Thompson Foundation P.S. Here's a new twist to foil those folks who are just looking for free CE - if you don't sign in to the seminar on the 28th, you won't get the certificate on the 29th.. When the CE is on us, we will check youout! PPS. I WAS born on a Monday, but it wasn't last Monday! :)

In Brazil, there are at least 131 described toxic plants belonging to 79 genera. Annual livestock losses due to plant poisoning-associated deaths are estimated to range from 820,761 to 1,755,763 cattle, 399,800 to 445,309 sheep, 52,675 to 63,292 goats and 38,559 horses. In veterinary diagnostic laboratories around the country,approximately 15% of necropsy diagnoses involve plant poisoning, and in the deep south of the country, themain cause of death in cattle is poisoning by Senecio species. Due to time restrictions, we will address cattleintoxication considering only five plants, namely, Senecio spp. (ragwort), Pteridium arachnoideum (brackenfern), Ateleia glazioviana, Senna occidentalis (coffee senna), and Vicia villosa (hairy vetch).

A very important and overdue note of thanks...
by Bruce Williams June 12, 2020

June 12, 2020

Recently I have gotten a lot of really nice emails about the good work that the Foundation is doing with our virtual seminar series and how it really is filling a void left by the cancellation of so many meetings this year. I just want people to know that while my face may be all over it (sorry I’m not more Brad Pitt-like), there is absolutely no way I could do all this by myself, and there are a lot of people who deserve notice and credit. I am remiss for waiting this long to do it... First and foremost, our Foundation President Paco Uzal, who puts in such incredible long hours keeping everything running, if not smoothly, then with that appearance (and really, which is more important?) It took a lot of years to find someone that not only shared my vision, but could rearrange their schedule (yes, we all have real jobs that pay the bills), to make it a reality. Paco is incredibly devoted to international education, and he has brought the same fire with him to global (and national) education that he did to Latin American education before he became President of the entire Foundation. There is also a great crew of young (at least younger than me) pathologists who are spearheading the "Virtual Seminar Committee" and are responsible for doing all of the heavy lifting, as there are a lot of moving parts. RACE requires applications to go in on time, evaluations to be created, and certificates to go out on time. We need moderators for the seminars, ideas for the seminars, people to corral speakers. They brought a much more advance online evaluation system to the Foundation (why did I wait so long?). Even the videos have to be edited and cleaned up (blank spaces taken off the front and end and if you see some of the ones from yesterday, we now have a cool intro and watermark. Here are the people who make me look good when I upload the videos and flyers. I am putting some of the things they do beside their name so when you see their work, you will think of them: (but everyone pitches in to get everything done and some are so good at everything, they haven't found a niche!) Jeann Leal - (our graphic designer - all those flyers) Laura Bassel - (Survey Monkey and boy is the output amazing) Rafaela De Negri - (great moderator) Laura Setyo - (great moderator) Sophia Rosales Martinez - (she is a much better moderator than she thinks) Rachel Neto (she writes great reviews for the newsletter and can do anything behind the scenes) Whitney Zoll (RACE applications, certificate distribution - this sounds easy but it is a killer) Neha Mishra (certificates) Brigid Troan - (did you see her moderate this last Tuesday - that's 11 hour's folks and she was perfect till the end!) Marie-Odile Benoit-Biancamo - (video editing and she may just have the longest name in the Foundation!) Will O'Neill - (video editing, and I rarely involve residents as they have more important things to do) and of course Jim Britt - who makes sure we ALWAYS get our RACE credits. Thank you to all these folks and you deserve all the credit. Bruce Williams, DVM CEO Davis-Thompson Foundation
