 Dr. Thurmond is Professor Emeritus in the
Department of Medicine and Epidemiology in the School of Veterinary Medicine
at the University of California at Davis. He remains involved part time as
the Co-Director of the Center for Animal Disease Modeling and Surveillance,
where he
continues to pursue his research interests in epidemiology and disease
surveillance, particularly related to foot-and-mouth disease. |
