Podcasts about DVM

Dr. Mariana Byndloss is Assistant Professor of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Research in Mariana's lab investigates how the bacteria that live inside our gut can affect our health. She is interested in how things like diet, antibiotics, or infection may change how our body behaves. This, in turn, can change how the bacteria in our gut behave and lead to disease. Outside of science, Mariana loves animals, and she spends a lot of her free time with her dog and new puppy. They are both German Shorthair Pointers, and she trains them to hunt and to participate in American Kennel Club competitions. Mariana also enjoys quality time with her husband and son, listening to live music, and exploring all the great restaurants in Nashville. Mariana earned her DVM, MSc in veterinary pathology, and PhD in veterinary pathology from the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) in Brazil. She was awarded the Brazilian National Prize for best PhD thesis in Veterinary Medicine. Afterwards, Mariana conducted postdoctoral research at the University of California, Davis before joining the faculty at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. In our interview, Mariana will tell us more about her life and science.

As horses age, their health care needs and associated costs often increase, making proactive management especially important. Having your veterinarian perform regular examinations, dental evaluations, and monitoring for common senior conditions can help you catch problems early and potentially reduce long-term expenses. Senior horses might also require specialized feeds, medications, or additional supportive care, which can increase monthly costs. Developing a preventive care plan and budgeting for age-related health needs can help owners support their horses' comfort and longevity. This episode is brought to you by CareCredit.

Send Audrey a Text to get your question answered on the showSound familiar?  The ground gets wet, then dry, then wet again. And like clockwork, your horse comes up three-legged lame with a hot, throbbing foot. You call the vet. You call the farrier. Somebody says wet-dry cycles. Somebody says stone bruise. You soak, you wrap, you wait for it to blow, and everyone moves on until next year.

Send us Fan MailWhat does AI literacy actually look like for pathologists, researchers, and future clinicians? And how do you teach it in a way that is practical, not abstract?In this episode, I talk with Candice Chu, DVM, PhD about something I think a lot of people in digital pathology and computational pathology are feeling right now: AI is moving fast, but education is still catching up.Candice is a clinical pathologist, veterinarian, and educator building AI-focused teaching and research at Texas A&M. We worked together before on digital pathology and image analysis projects, so this conversation felt especially grounded. We talk about her AI literacy curriculum framework for veterinary education, why she decided to build it, and what it takes to teach AI in a way that is useful, ethical, and realistic.This episode is about understanding what AI tools are good for, where they can waste your time, and why hands-on experience matters. Candice explains why she sees AI as a set of tools, not a belief system. Try them. Learn them. Keep what improves your workflow. Drop what does not.We also talk about the difference between putting educational content online and building formal institutional teaching. That matters because social media can move quickly, but curriculum changes, research, and professional organizations shape longer-term adoption. Candice shares how her course started as a low-stakes elective, then grew into a more structured framework that combines education with publishable research.A big part of this conversation is the curriculum itself. We go through what students actually learn: AI fundamentals without heavy math, machine learning and image analysis, large language models, prompt engineering, chatbot building, ethics, literature research, and final projects where students evaluate real tools and workflows. I liked that the course does not stop at theory. It asks students to use tools, question them, and explain where they help and where they do not.We also get into something that matters far beyond veterinary medicine: professional responsibility. If AI is involved in a workflow, the clinician is still responsible. That includes fabricated citations, bad outputs, weak prompts, and the temptation to trust tools too quickly. Candice makes a strong case that AI education needs ethics, legal context, and interdisciplinary teaching built in from the start.If you are trying to think more clearly about AI in pathology, education, workflow design, or professional training, this episode gives you a concrete example of what responsible AI literacy can look like.Episode Highlights00:00 – Why AI tools are just tools, and why trying them matters even if you later decide not to keep using them00:33 – Who Candice Chu is and why her work on AI literacy in veterinary medicine is worth paying attention to02:33 – Why going back to Texas A&M changed the scale of Candice's AI research and teaching07:53 – How the AI course was designed as a low-stakes elective first, and why that helped student engagement11:16 – Where veterinary AI education stands now, and what professional organizations like ACVP are doing13:08 – Why AI adoption in veterinary medicine is still slow, and what skepticism usually sounds like in practice15:19 – Real examples of how Candice uses LLMs and computer vision in pathology, medical records, and research19:58 – What is actually inside the 15-week AI literacy curriculum, from fundamentals to final projects24:16 – Why ethics and legal responsibility are not optional in AI education31:35 – Why no-code tools and vibe coding are entering the curriculum already38:50 – The AI tools Candice is testing in her own workflow, including Claude, Codex, and PerplexityResources mentionedCandice Chu's AI literacy curriculum framework paper in Frontiers in Veterinary ScienceCandice's earlier work on ChatGPT in veterinary medicineTexas A&M and the institutional setting where Candice is building AI research and teachingMr. Don Riddick and the AVMA AI working group, mentioned in the ethics and legal contextClaude, Codex, and Perplexity as AI tools Candice is actively testingDigital Pathology 101, mentioned in the conversation as a teaching resourceCandice's online educational work on Instagram.Support the showGet the "Digital Pathology 101" FREE E-book and join us!

Eye problems can stump even seasoned GPs, but they don't have to.

How do you tell cataracts from nuclear sclerosis in seconds? What's the smartest way to triage a corneal ulcer? And which red flags mean "emergency" the moment they walk through the door? Pierce breaks it all down with practical, step-by-step guidance you can use in clinic tomorrow.

In this episode, Toni welcomes back Dr. Carmela Panza, DVM, CVA, for a wide-ranging conversation on holistic veterinary medicine and what it means to support a pet's health beyond treating symptoms. Drawing from decades of experience, Dr. Panza explains how nutrition, hormones, oral health, and lifestyle all work together to influence a dog's long-term well-being. A large part of the discussion explores the effects of spaying and neutering, including the important role reproductive hormones play throughout the body. Dr. Panza also dives into dental health, the connection between inflammation and chronic disease, and why taking a proactive, whole-body approach can help prevent health issues before they start. Throughout the episode, she breaks down complex veterinary topics into practical information pet parents can understand and apply. More than anything, this conversation is about empowering pet owners to ask questions, seek education, and become active participants in their pets' healthcare. Whether you're interested in holistic medicine, hormone health, or making more informed decisions alongside your veterinarian, this episode offers valuable insight into caring for the whole animal.

Send Audrey a Text to get your question answered on the showToday's topic is the reason terrain gets out of balance in the first place. We're talking about the five biggest mistakes I see on the Minerals and Metals Mane Test, the MMMT, week after week, horse after horse.Here's the belief I want you to walk away questioning today: most horse owners are not making bad decisions. They're making nutrition decisions with incomplete information. There's a real difference between those two things, and once you see these five mistakes laid out, you'll understand why so many "we're doing everything right" horses are still stuck.

Send Audrey a Text to get your question answered on the showToday we're tackling one of the most frequently cited studies in the world of equine hair tissue mineral analysis, or HTMA.If you've spent any time researching HTMA, you've probably heard someone say:"That 2022 Journal of Equine Veterinary Science study proved hair mineral testing doesn't work."And honestly, that's one of the reasons I wanted to record this episode.Because after reviewing more than 10,000 mane mineral analyses over the years, I think it's important thatwe discuss what the study actually found, what it didn't find, and perhaps most importantly, whether it waseven asking the same question that many HTMA practitioners are asking.Now before we begin, I want to be very clear.This is not an episode about dismissing research.It's not an episode about defending HTMA at all costs.In fact, I agree with some of the concerns raised by the study.I think it highlights important challenges within the industry.

Equine skin problems can stem from a wide range of causes, including parasites, bacterial or fungal infections, allergies, and prolonged exposure to moisture or irritants. Successfully managing horses with skin problems relies on working with your veterinarian to identify the underlying issue and appropriately treat it. Because many dermatologic conditions can look similar in the early stages, it's important to have the veterinarian evaluate your horse promptly to help prevent complications and improve outcomes. During this episode, veterinarians answer your questions about common equine skin problems. This episode is brought to you by Creative Science. Meet the Experts: Julia Miller, DVM, Dipl.
