@MayoClinicINFD Echinococcus multilocularis. Domestic dogs can also act as definitive hosts, shedding eggs into the environment and posing a zoonotic risk. Alternatively, dogs can develop alveolar echinococcosis similar to humans and intermediate hosts.

Yesterday I presented at the 2025 OVC Grad Student Research Symposium - a preview of the work I’ll be presenting later this month in Victoria BC for WDA 2025
