MLAS 610S Diseases of Laboratory Animals 3.0 Credits
Reviews the major diseases of laboratory animals, and provides information on surgery, anesthesia and radiology. Unlike clinical veterinary medicine where a common objective is to make a sick animal healthy, in laboratory animal medicine the objective is to prevent a healthy animal from becoming sick. The goal of the course is to have the student understand means of disease prevention and recognition. This course will be taught, as much as possible, in a modified problem based learning format.
