Merck Animal Health is partnering with EquiManagement to sponsor the 2020 Disease Du Jour podcast series for equine veterinarians, vet students, vet techs and industry professionals. The podcast was launched in 2019 and has received rave reviews for its content focused on education for the equine veterinary industry.
“We are thrilled to have Merck Animal Health join us in this veterinary industry educational endeavor,” said Kimberly S. Brown, Group Publisher of the Equine Health Network. “It is exciting to have a partner as focused on veterinary education as we are to help us bring these podcasts to our audience.”
“Podcasting has seen incredible growth in recent years— and for the busy veterinarian, what better way to catch up on important disease developments, clinical techniques and research updates,” said Kathy Miranowic, equine marketing manager for Merck Animal Health. “There is so much happening in equine health, and Disease Du Jour is tackling the hottest topics. We were already big fans, and now proud to help bring the podcast to equine professionals throughout the year.”
Included in the topics that will be in the covered bi-weekly podcast in early 2020 are Joint Injections in the Field by Dr. Rick Mitchell on January 16; White Line Disease by Dr. Stephen O’Grady on January 30; and the Equine Disease Communication Center by Dr. Nat White on February 13.
Future Disease Du Jour podcasts brought to you by Merck Animal Health will be available every-other-Thursday throughout the year.
