Every Tuesday this August, join scientists and vets from the University of Liverpool to discover more about the amazing natural world. In these free public talks, we’ll explore a different fascinating topic each week, from creatures of the garden down to the tiny world of insects! Talks are open to everyone aged 12+ and no background in science is needed.
This week's theme: Our World.
Paw-sitive Health
Shona Bloodworth
Companion animals are a valuable part of our life and society. We all know vaccinations make for a healthier human world, but is it important to vaccinate cats and dogs? My own pets can tell you! My research is all about how we can make their world happier and healthier by looking at the trends going on at vet practices.
An Egg A Day Keeps the Doctor Away?
Dr Andy Stringer
Children need the right nutrition to help them grow healthy and strong. One way to do this is by including animal-based foods like eggs in their diet. These foods can help fight undernutrition, a big problem in many parts of the world. We'll look at how different countries are tackling this issue and share some stories about successful projects. Diseases in animals and humans can affect this effort, making it even more important to ensure kids get the nutrition they need.
