Changes in the prevalence of cancer and contemporary diagnostics and treatments. While these have dramatically decreased mortality, cancer continues to claim more than 585,000 lives annually. The focus will be on the mechanisms that are corrupted in cancer cells and the differences in vulnerability among tissues, the technologies used to define pathways and lessons learned and strategies being used to exploit the vulnerabilities of tumors for personalized and targeted therapeutics.

We will cover changes in the prevalence of cancer and contemporary diagnostics and treatments. While these have dramatically decreased mortality, cancer continues to claim more than 585,000 lives annually. Therefore, the focus will be on the mechanisms that are corrupted in cancer cells and the differences in vulnerability among tissues, the technologies used to define pathways and lessons learned. Equally important are the strategies being used to exploit the vulnerabilities of tumors for personalized and targeted therapeutics.

This course covers scientifically-based principles of equine management including safe horse handling, daily stable operations, record keeping, nutrition, vaccination and de-worming protocols, and breeding herd management.

This course will educate students on the poultry industry and its various management practices. Students will discuss different types of animal husbandry, housing systems, welfare, nutrition, marketing and labeling.

This course provides exposure to the beef cattle production cycle and hands-on experience in all aspects of herd management. An emphasis is placed on understanding normal cattle behavior and practicing "sound stockmanship."

Real-world cases involving management and veterinary medicine for large animals, companion animals, and wildlife will be presented. With instructor guidance, students will work to identify and solve problems posed by each case, while expanding their knowledge and developing skills in critical thinking, self-directed learning, problem solving, written and oral presentation, and teamwork. Satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BS-AnSci and BS-PreVet majors.
