The Covid-19 pandemic has shown us that the detection of new diseases must be both fast and reliable if we are to limit the impact illnesses can have on our industries, communities, and global lifestyles.

Yet, if you鈥檝e spent any time anxiously waiting for a Covid test result, you鈥檒l know that current PCR and RAT systems are far from perfect. Enter, man鈥檚 best friend. How can dogs revolutionise the way we detect and profile new and evolving diseases? Has the answer been under our noses the whole time?

This week,聽host Professor Andy Lowe聽chats with Dr Anne-Lise Chaber, Senior Lecturer at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide鈥檚 School of Animal and Veterinary Science and One Health Expert. Join us, as we bring a whole new level of meaning to Rat tests and Lab results in the fight to protect world-wide wellness.
