We had a great time at the BSVP meeting last weekend - From Androgens to Trophoblasts: Current Perspectives in Reproductive and Mammary Gland Pathology, and we wanted to share a couple of VPG highlights.

🔵 Annika Herrmann, DECVP was part of the organising team in her role as one of the BSVP educational co-ordinators, working closely with the local organisers and her fellow co-ordinator to help bring the two day event together.

🔵 Elizabeth Alloway presented the sustainability project that earned VPG the runner up position in this year’s BSVP Green Lab Competition.

🔵 There was also a well deserved mention for Erika Abbondati for her work in driving regional pathology meetings in Scotland.

🔵 We were pleased to support the event by sponsoring the delegate badges and to be part of a weekend focused on shared learning, collaboration and the future of veterinary pathology.

If you were there, we hope you enjoyed the program as much as we did!

🐈🩶Could tiny molecules change the way we diagnose feline heart disease?

Feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most common and complex conditions seen in cats. Often silent until it’s too late, early detection has long been one of the biggest challenges in feline medicine.

New research is uncovering how microRNAs, small molecules that regulate gene expression could hold the key to detecting HCM before structural changes even begin.

The team at MI:RNA Diagnostics are combining molecular science with AI to identify unique miRNA patterns in cats with HCM, paving the way for a simple blood test that could transform how we diagnose and monitor feline heart disease.

📍 Meet the MI:RNA team at the London Vet Show to discover how tiny molecules might make a big difference. They will be on The VPG stand (P45) on Thursday the 20th November between 13:00-15:00. We hope to see you there!

New Case Study: Mycobacterial Lymphadenitis in a Cat 🐱

A 12-year-old domestic short hair cat presented with submandibular lymph node enlargement. Histological examination revealed granulomatous lymphadenitis with necrosis, and PCR analysis confirmed a Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection.

This case explores the presentation, diagnostic approach and zoonotic considerations associated with mycobacterial infections in cats.

Read the full case study to learn more about diagnostic options including Ziehl-Neelsen staining, PCR analysis and culture, and guidance for sample handling and zoonotic risk management.
