Listen "Does meconium have a microbiome? With Dr. Caroline Mansfield"
Episode Synopsis
And we are back with the amazing Dr. Caroline Mansfield. Part two picks up where we left with the microbiome. Caroline explains what we are looking for in the microbiome to make conclusions about the exact function. There is so much data that we often do not see the woods for the trees. One of the topics we discuss is the Hill’s Global Symposium which had the microbiome as a major topic. Did you know the microbiome is relatively stable except for the early years and when you become an older ‘animal’? Disease will affect the microbiome and according to Dr. Mansfield we need to use the microbiome to predict and track upcoming health events of the individual patientThanks for tuning in to the Purr Podcast with Dr. Susan and Dr. Jolle!If you enjoyed today’s episode, don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review—it really helps other cat lovers and vet nerds find the show.
