A story for veterinarians! Overcoming adversity and embracing change! Today, we will be visiting with a veterinarian turned one health expert, Dr. Deborah Thomson, all the way from Washington, DC, who shares with us how a chance teaching job at a middle school catapulted her as a one health key opinion later on Capitol Hill. Through her experience, she is now enabling and impacting hundreds of others by creating One Health curriculum plans and outlining her ‘lessons learned’ in her book The Art of Science Communication; sharing knowledge with students, the public and policy makers. Her story just goes to show that a veterinarian's work is not done just inside the clinic but also has the ability to mold the future of the next generation decision makers and the animal health industry.
