Laura A. Motsinger, PhD, MBA: Hill's Pet Nutrition: employee (Ongoing)
This session will define the different types of -omics—such as genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics—and review their current applications in veterinary medicine. We will demonstrate how -omics research has already contributed to the development of commercial nutritional solutions for disease management in animals. Finally, we’ll discuss future directions, highlighting how -omics will continue to shape veterinary care, with a focus on nutrition as truly applied biochemistry.
Learning Objectives:
Define “omics” and review its use in veterinary medicine
Demonstrate how “omics” research has been used in the development of commercial nutritional solutions
Learn about future directions for “omics” research in veterinary nutrition
