Harnessing Precision Medicine for Veterinary Patients

Wednesday, June 10, 2026
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM PT
Pending CE: 1.0 Medical Hours
Specialty Symposium
Presentation Description / Summary: Dr. Joshua Stern and Dr. Victor Rivas will present an interactive session highlighting the use of precision medicine for veterinary patients. We will review novel techniques and discoveries that highlight the importance of considering an individualized medicine approach in 2026. Audience participation will be used to make this program interactive in nature. The intersection of a patient's genetic data and their environment, represent a key component of successful therapeutic intervention.

Learning Objectives:

  • Upon completion, participants will be able to explain current scenarios where individualized or precision medicine could benefit their clinical patients.
  • Upon completion, participants can take genetic testing data and advise on how this data should impact therapeutic decision making.
  • Upon completion, participants will be able to describe at least four contributing components to an individualized medicine approach to therapy.
