Where in the World: Shepherdstown, WV
Dr. Williams traveled to the National Marine Animal Stranding Conference in West Virgina along with Kathy, Brian, and over 200 national and international experts involved in marine animal stranding response. Dr. Williams taught a laboratory session on parasites in marine animals, presenting findings of middle ear disease in seals, and introduced three posters: common parasites of sea turtles, seals, and cetaceans.
Topics ranged from advanced diagnostic techniques, a veterinary continuing education session, and the concepts of One Health, and global surveillance through the use of marine animals.
