Summary
Today on the podcast, we’re excited to welcome Dr. Melissa Macías-Rioseco, a veterinary pathologist whose expertise spans infectious disease, livestock health, and reproductive pathology. Dr. Macías-Rioseco serves as an Associate Professor at UC Davis’s California Animal Health & Food Safety Laboratory within the Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology. What drives someone to give back so generously to their profession and community? In this episode, we explore Dr. Macías-Rioseco’s journey—her passion for pathology, her leadership, and her volunteer service with organizations like the ACVP, the Davis-Thompson Foundation (DTF), Latin Comparative Pathology Group (LCPG), and the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians (AAVLD). Join us for an inspiring conversation about the intersection of science, service, and the joy of sharing knowledge.
