Veterinary Anatomy building being considered for demolition

The Veterinary Anatomy Building (also known as "Old Anatomy") is being considered for demolition. Originally completed in 1901, the building had several additions previously torn down (including significant wings in 1915 and 1992), once housed the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, and was vacated in 1996 for structural reasons. Demolition would include salvaging brick, disconnection and removal of underground utilities, and landscape and sidewalk restoration. A copy of the Environment Assessment Worksheet will be posted on the University of Minnesota Capital Planning and Project Management Web site at www.cppm.umn.edu/master_planning.html. For more information, contact James Litsheim, Capital Planning and Project Management, at litsh002@umn.edu or 612-624-4359.

KARE-11 and KSTP-TV cover Animal Trauma Center
The Veterinary Medical Center's new Animal Trauma Center was covered by KARE-11 and KSTP-TV on March 8. Both TV stations shot video in the VMC's ER, interviewed Dr. Kelly Hall, and visited with Major, the former Roseville police dog who continues to be a patient of the VMC's rehabilitation service. The KARE-11 story is online at www.kare11.com/news/article/912440/396/U-of-M-launches-nations-first-animal-trauma-center; the KSTP story at http://kstp.com/article/stories/s2008180.shtml.

Post Bulletin explores VDL's testing for CWD
"Lab at U of M Has Huge Job of Testing for CWD," an article in the March 5 issue of Post Bulletin, explored the Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory's role in testing for chronic wasting disease. The full story and a 3:25-minute video featuring interviews with Dr. Jim Collins and assistant scientist Lotus Smasal are online at http://www.postbulletin.com/news/stories/display.php?id=1447028.

Minnesota Pulbic Radio interviews Stephanie Valberg
"Minnesotans Note a New Neighbor: the Virginia Opossum," a story aired on Minnesota Public Radio on March 9, interviewed Dr. Stephanie Valberg, director of the Equine Center. Opossums can be a problem for horses because they carry a disease that can cause a neurological condition called equine protozoal myeloencephalitis. The condition is only harmful to horses and is spread when horses eat food that's been in contact with opossum feces. The full story is online at ttp://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2011/03/09/climate-change-virginia-opossum/.

The publication is online at http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/volunteer/index.html.

Student news (top)

Alexander Primus receives top AASV scholarship

Alexander Primus, a second-year veterinary student, received a $5,000 scholarship for top student presentation at the American Association of Swine Veterinarians annual meeting in Phoenix, Arizona, March 5-8. Alexander's presentation was titled "Identification of a New Potentially Virulent Brachyspira Species Affecting Swine."

Competition for the scholarship was tough: Veterinary students representing 12 universities submitted 50 abstracts for consideration. From those submissions, 15 students were selected to present during the annual meeting. Judges representing private practice, higher education, and industry selected the recipients on the basis of communications skills in the writing of the abstract and the presentation of the case report, and on applicability of the research to swine medicine. Alpharma Animal Health provided the financial support for the award.
