Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Vet Life Reimagined, Dr. Eve Hanks, BVM&S, CertAVP (EM), PhD, FRCVS, takes us inside the emerging world of microRNA diagnostics, a technology that could transform how veterinarians detect and manage disease across species.Dr. Hanks’ journey is remarkable: from becoming a single mom at 19, to mixed animal practice, to discovering a passion for research, and ultimately founding MiRNA, a biotech company advancing early-detection diagnostics in animals.Eve explains what microRNAs are, why they represent a major leap forward in precision medicine, and how this technology may allow veterinarians to identify chronic disease earlier and improve outcomes for both companion and production animals. She also shares honest insights about leadership, resilience, and what it really takes to build a mission-driven company from the ground up.This conversation blends science, innovation, and career inspiration — a must-listen for anyone curious about the future of veterinary medicine.Resources:Episode on YouTubeMiRNA websiteMiRNA on LinkedInThe Animal Health, Nutrition, Technology Innovation (AHNTI) conference will be in Boston on Oct 26-28.
