Welcome!
We're located in the Department
of
Veterinary Microbiology in the Western College of Veterinary
Medicine at the University
of
Saskatchewan in the city of Saskatoon,
Saskatchewan, Canada.
Our group is interested in
microbial ecology and in diagnostic methods for detecting specific
organisms in complex backgrounds. We work with equal
enthusiasm
on
developing molecular diagnostic methods for application in the clinical
microbiology laboratory and in studying the structure and function of
complex microbial communities, particularly those associated with
animals. At the core of our work is the cpnDB project,
which evolved out of
a collaboration between the University
of
Saskatchewan, the National
Research Council of Canada and the British
Columbia Centre for Disease Control.
