It's a tragic reality that our guest, Bruce Christensen, a theriogenologist and a veterinarian, has faced and is now dedicated to preventing. We delve into a critical issue - the alarming discrepancy in temperatures between what's set and achieved in neonatal incubators. Bruce shares the findings of his comprehensive research that uncovers how certain incubator models can heat up to fatal temperatures far surpassing the set limit, leading to heartbreaking loss of neonatal animals.

Bruce's expertise doesn't stop at just identifying the problem; he provides a solution by emphasizing the absolute necessity of double-checking incubator temperatures. He takes us through his remarkable journey of overcoming challenges to step into the world of theriogenology. As we navigate the passion-filled pathway he has trodden, you would also discover a personal keepsake that fuels his drive.
