AVC鈥檚 Diagnostic Services Unit has received funding from Agriculture and Agri-Food to develop new diagnostic tests that are more effective, more sensitive, and less expensive for detecting bovine and swine viruses.

The Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, announced recently at AVC that Diagnostic Services has received $709,138 for the project from the federal Growing Forward 2 program.

Researchers in Diagnostic Services鈥� Regional Diagnostic Virology Service laboratory will work on developing three multiplex molecular tests that will test for multiple viruses from a single sample. The researchers will target diseases that affect food-producing animals and therefore pose economic risk in the domestic and export markets. These diseases include swine enteric viruses such as porcine epidemic diarrhea virus and transmissible gastroenteritis virus, and bovine enteric and respiratory viruses, such as bovine parainfluenza virus and bovine virus diarrhea virus.

"Canada鈥檚 reputation for safe, high-quality meat and dairy products is one that is backed by science and helps to keep our sector competitive and profitable,鈥� says MacAulay. 鈥淭his partnership with one of Canada鈥檚 leading veterinary colleges will ensure our industry continues to be recognized domestically and internationally for producing high-quality products.鈥�

Dr. Greg Keefe, dean of AVC, says the project will strengthen AVC鈥檚 ability to monitor for, and prevent the spread of, diseases that may affect the beef, dairy, and pork export industries in Atlantic Canada.
鈥淭he beef, dairy, and pork industries in Atlantic Canada are important economic drivers, and it is essential that food-production animals are healthy for productivity and welfare, and our export trade.鈥�

Dr. Alaa Abd-El-Aziz, President and Vice-Chancellor of 秀色短视频, thanked the Government of Canada for its support, saying 鈥渢his investment in the Atlantic Veterinary College at 秀色短视频 supports the critical role our regional institution plays in health management of food-producing animals, effective disease surveillance, and prosperity of our key industries.鈥�

The research team will work on developing one multiplex test per year, with the goal of completing all three in three years. Once the new tests have been validated, they can be used by veterinary diagnostic laboratories across Canada.

Dr. Aimie Doyle (Class of 2000), a large animal surgical specialist at AVC, is featured on the National Geographic Wild docu-reality show, Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet, when it opens for its third season on March 19.

Because there is no surgical expertise for large animals in the North, Dr. Doyle provides her expertise to Dr. Michelle Oakley, star of the show and Dr. Doyle鈥檚 classmate at AVC. In the March 19 show, Drs Doyle and Oakley work together to determine the cause of serious lameness in a horse.

In May 2015, Dr. Doyle took students Bethany Holliday, Nancy Brochu, and Shauna MacLeod, AVC Class of 2016, to work with Dr. Oakley on a captive wildlife rotation where they gained experience with a variety of captive wild animals鈥攆rom reindeer to porcupines. The students will appear in an upcoming episode of the show.

Dr. Doyle will return to the Yukon in May 2016 to work with Dr. Oakley on the fourth season of the show.

Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet premiered on April 14, 2014, on National Geographic鈥檚 subsidiary channel Nat Geo WILD. One of only a few veterinarians in the Yukon, Dr. Oakley is followed by a film crew as she travels hundreds of kilometres across harsh terrain to make house calls to help many species of animals, ranging from an angry musk ox and a caribou with a tumor to a defensive lynx and a grey owl with an amputated wing. In her case, 鈥渉ouse鈥� may range from a remote homestead to a frozen prairie in the dead of winter.

Dr. Oakley lives in the village of Haines Junction, Yukon, with her husband and three daughters. She runs a clinic out of her home and offers weekly clinics in satellite facilities in Whitehorse, Yukon, 154 km from her home and in Haines, Alaska, 238 km from where she lives. She is the on-call veterinarian for the Yukon Wildlife Preserve, a huge enclosure that contains many animals native to the Yukon as well as a large wildlife rehabilitation facility.

She has been involved in numerous research programs for First Nations organizations and for the Canadian government. In addition to her veterinary role, she is recognized as a regional biologist in the Yukon. She is an associate professor at the University of Calgary鈥檚 College of Veterinary Medicine and regularly works at the Calgary zoo in this capacity.

The Winter鈥檚 Tales Authors Reading Series presents a public reading by Newfoundland author Michelle Butler Hallett. The reading takes place 7:30 pm, Tuesday, March 15 at in the Dawson Lounge, room 520 of 秀色短视频鈥檚 SDU Main Building. Originating from St. John鈥檚, where she currently resides with her family, Michelle is known as a literary risk-taker.

Butler Hallett is a master of many writing forms. She has published a short story collection entitled The shadow side of grace and has since been a prominent contributor to various short story anthologies. She is also a poet, playwright, and novelist. Her published novels are Double-blind (shortlisted for the 2008 Sunburst Award), Sky Waves, and deluded your sailors.

She is the kind of writer who does not brush aside her own struggles or the human suffering surrounding her; rather, she uses strife and stress to fuel her writing and the journeys of her characters. As a writer, Butler Hallett is enticed by crossroads, believes in asking 鈥淲hat if?鈥� to spark a great story, and has said that the 鈥渕ystery of suffering鈥� compels her to create rich and powerful fiction. Her stories have high stakes and conflict, making her work striking and memorable.

Butler Hallett鈥檚 last novel was issued five years ago, but readers鈥� anticipation for a new book will soon be met, as her latest novel, This Marlowe, will be released this March. This Marlowe is set in England in 1593, the year that Christopher Marlowe mysteriously died. Marlowe was the greatest English playwright of his era and a major influence on the next great playwright, Shakespeare. The novel will explore faith, duty, love, and politics, and the difficult choices which Marlowe and, indeed, all of us face. It can be described as historical fiction with a contemporary edge, and you can hear more about it from the author herself on March 15. 

The reading is sponsored by the 秀色短视频 Faculty of Arts and The Canada Council for the Arts. Refreshments will be provided. A reception and book-signing by the author will follow.

I am very proud that 秀色短视频 is actively building this foundation in support of enabling our students to reach their full potential in both the classroom and the community.鈥�

The relocation of the Department of Physics will take place this summer. Both engineering and physics faculty will have their offices, labs, and classes in the new building.

Acting Chair of Physics James Polson added, 鈥淭he physics and engineering departments have a history of working together. By now being in the same building and sharing resources such as labs and project studios, our students will further benefit.鈥� Dr. Polson explained, 鈥淭he prospect of growing collaboration is exciting, as 秀色短视频鈥檚 research agenda will also be strengthened. For example, one of my physics colleagues has been essential in the development of the four multi-disciplinary centres of excellence in the School of Sustainable Design Engineering.鈥�

Associate Dean of Engineering Nicholas Krouglicof said, 鈥淪ince arriving at 秀色短视频, I have had the pleasure of working with outstanding colleagues that have a great vision for the new 秀色短视频 School of Sustainable Design Engineering. This includes faculty from other departments such as physics, who have partnered with engineering for many years.鈥� Dr. Krouglicof added, 鈥淲e welcome our physics colleagues to the new facility as we know it will create many more opportunities for collaborative research and strengthen existing partnerships.鈥�

鈥淔aculty of Science departments at 秀色短视频 are recognized for their strong desire to work together across disciplines,鈥� remarked Dr. Debbie MacLellan, Dean of Science. 鈥淲e have recently witnessed this collaborative effort when Mathematics and Statistics and Computer Science merged to form the new School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences. With this latest announcement that Physics will be located in the new engineering facility, I expect more innovative programming and research synergies as an outcome.鈥�

The new building and home of the 秀色短视频 School of Sustainable Design Engineering and Department of Physics will open in August 2016.
