Today we explore the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on veterinary medicine, focusing mainly on cancer research and treatment. Our guest, Dr. Kelly Diehl, Senior Scientific Programs and Communications Adviser at Morris Animal Foundation, shares her insights on how AI is changing the game in diagnosing and managing diseases in dogs.What You'll Learn:

How the Morris Animal Foundation has been pioneering veterinary research since 2008.

Insights into the groundbreaking Golden Retriever Lifetime Study and its implications for cancer research.

The role of AI in detecting and researching cancers in dogs, including lymphoma.

New initiatives and advancements in AI that could lead to early detection and more effective treatments for canine cancers.

The interdisciplinary approach to veterinary research, involving experts from fields not traditionally associated with veterinary science.

The future potential of AI in regular veterinary practices and its benefits for pet health and welfare.
