We're inviting veterinary professionals to help us identify challenges and opportunities to detect historical trends in admissions for canine tick paralysis.
Our research survey participants will take part in three, separate research surveys. The surveys will contribute to a broader research program to build models and generate useful short-term forecasts for canine tick paralysis admissions to Australian veterinary clinics.
