He is involved in clinical aspects of diagnosis, surveillance, control and management of a number of infectious diseases of wildlife in Canada including chronic wasting disease, anthrax, brucellosis and bovine tuberculosis. His research interests involve the epidemiology of bovine tuberculosis in cattle and wildlife in southern Manitoba, which is the topic of his PhD thesis, as well as the ecology of sylvatic plague, validation of diagnostic tests in bison, management of hyperabundant wildlife populations, and chemical immobilization of wild animals.
