Exercise Induced Collapse
In this edition of Genome Barks, we welcome Dr. Jim Mickelson, a member of the faculty at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine.
The primary goal of Dr. Mickelson’s research program is to indentify the molecular basis of inherited neurologic and neuromuscular disorders in domestic animals. Dr. Mickelson has received funding from the AKC Canine Health Foundation for his research in epilepsy, exercised induced collapse and polyneuropathy.
In this podcast Dr. Mickelson discusses his research that resulted in a genetic test for Excercise Induced Collapse in the Labrador Retriever.

The Future of Cancer Research
In this edition of Genome Barks we hear from Dr. Bruce Smith of the Auburn University Research Initiative in Cancer (AURIC). The Auburn College of Veterinary Medicine recently received a $1 million appropriation from the state of Alabama for cancer research. Specifically, Dr. Smith discusses the focus of the "One Medicine" approach which links human, animal, and environmental health, and where discoveries in one species advance the health in all species.
This podcast was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Kenneth A. Scott Charitable Trust, a KeyBank Trust.
