1. Global Animal and Human Health care Thought Leaders Gather for Top in Seattle
Animal and human healthcare thought leaders gathered in Seattle on Wednesday, December 11, for the
first yearly "Translational and Comparative Research Summit." The Summit raised awareness in the
clinical, research and financial investment neighborhoods about species-spanning methods to health
care, which are leading to development treatments and new requirements of care.
"One in three individuals, one in four dogs and one in 5 cats will establish pet cancer in their life time,"
said summit speaker John Payne, chairman of the American Humane Association. "Animals and human
beings share many of the very same illness, and there is much to be discovered from animal health care
that can be equated to human health care, leading to new and cost efficient treatments for human
illness.".
"There are many persistent conditions that impact human beings and animals such as cancer,
cardiovascular disease, kidney condition, diabetes, obesity, asthma, arthritis and orthopedic diseases,"
noted Dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine at Kansas State University Dr. Ralph Richardson.
The Summit speakers required organized discussion in between doctors and veterinarians, to build on
common pools of knowledge in locations such as physiology, pathology and epidemiology, embracing
"One Wellness" and identifying mutual benefits for animals and human.
