Have you always been keen on showing? I’ve not always had horse. I first got into horses when I was 10 years old, but my mum has had horses since she was young so it is safe to say they are in my blood. What got you started in the show ring? I started in Clydesdale showing when I was 12 with my main horse Dillars Rascal. I had no idea what I was doing when I first started showing Clydesdales as I only had small ponies and horses for jumping. We bought our first Clydesdale Dillars Rascal when he was a yearling back in 2016. Rascal and I have grown up together and he is my go to horse for showing. I’ve showed him in many in-hand and young handler competitions including the 2019 Royal Highland Show were we placed 3rd!

Behind the scenes, UC Davis researchers started from scratch

In January 2020, Nam Tran and his colleagues in the UC Davis Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine were scaling up testing platforms for seasonal influenza and the common cold.
The UC Davis Health Specialty Testing Center Lab team developed COVID-19 testing capable of performing more than 1,000 tests per day.
Tran is a professor of clinical pathology at the UC Davis School of Medicine. He was following reports out of China about a mysterious new respiratory virus, SARS-CoV-2. Not much was known at the time about how the novel coronavirus spread or what the mortality rate was.
