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.
