Renee’s project describes the vestibular system and vestibular disease, including the signs, causes, testing and treatment options. She was inspired to research the system after shadowing a veterinarian and watching them examine a dog with a horizontal nystagmus, or uncontrollable eye movement.
One of the most important aspects of the O.R. (operating room) is the sterile environment. My project, AABC’s of the O.R. discusses the reasons why a sterile environment is needed, explains how this environment is achieved, and includes other notes on remaining safe during surgery.
My project is about six of the most common diseases found in horses. Looking at my project, you will see braided strings going from each ailment description to the area on the horse it affect. Among the six, five of them are treatable with interventions and one can only be given supportive care. I developed this project and wrote the accompanying report to teach others about an animal I care deeply for.
My poster compares osteoarthritis in dogs and humans. Diagnostic strategy terms were explained and again compared between humans and canines. Finally, a mini quiz was included.
My project was designed to aid in the success a cattle producer may wish to achieve with embryo transfer, through the “ET Success Triangle.” This triangle outlines the importance of a high quality bovine recipient, a high quality bovine embryo, and a certified practitioner. All three components of the triangle must be available during embryo transfer, or else the cattle producer may experience low conception rates within their cattle herd.
My poster explains why sheep are seasonal breeders. It also explains how CIDR’s work and step-by-step instructions on how to apply them. The CIDR’s can help producers produce more livestock in a year than if they let them breed naturally.
