Epilepsy and Oxalate Stones

In this podcast we bring you and interview with Dr. Ned Patterson, a member of the faculty at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine.  Funded by the AKC Canine Health Foundation for a variety of genetic disorders and epilepsy, Dr. Patterson’s research interests include epilepsy, comparative medicine, genetics and molecular medicine.

Dr. Patterson discusses his research on a treatment for epliepsy in dogs.  He also covers another of his research projects funded by the AKC Canine Health Foundation, urinary stones composed of calcium oxalate.  These stones can be a problem for any dog, but are far more problematic in Miniature Schnauzers.
