Great to be involved with this initiative. Always good to see an impact coming from our research into canine worm infections 🪱 @aberdlsagb.bsky.social @bchcaber.bsky.social

Person in a lecture theatre holding up a small piece of kong that the dog will be searching for. The border collie is focused on her rewards sat on the desk in front of her.

Cotton came to work to demonstrate skills taught by Eszter Monostori on her #OneZoo PhD project - teaching dogs to locate the intermediate hosts of parasites. She loved meeting our students, inspiring the next generation of scientists.
