“If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans. You’ve nothing to worry about there.”

James Herriot

Welcome to PetiScience

Hello, and welcome to PetiScience! If you’re here you too are probably a lover of science or animals or both. I decided to create PetiScience to help disseminate knowledge of animals and science, particularly with respect to veterinary medicine, animal health, one health, and animal biology. As someone who has struggled through a degree to learn the fancy words and the nitty gritty of all things animal, I thought it would be a good idea to share what I’ve learned with my fellow learners and pet owners.

Too often veterinary medicine and science in general are loaded up with complicated concepts and words that take years to understand. As scientists, we have to be able to communicate the culmination of years of study and experience in our fields to people who are starting from scratch. With this blog I hope to break down some of the more complicated concepts, tests, and diseases that fill the agricultural and veterinary industries.

Learning is a life-long process. Whether you’re here to find information on a specific topic, or because you just like science and or animals, or for another reason entirely, I hope that you are able to leave with a little more wisdom than you had before. I thank you for visiting PetiScience and learning with me today. Enjoy!
