Biography

Dr. Heather L. Wilson has completed her PhD in Biochemistry at the University of Saskatchewan and joined VIDO-InterVac as a Research Scientist in 2006. Her current research focus involves using intrauterine immunization to promote mucosal immunity, using pig as an animal model. Pigs are ideal because a sow’s cervix is permissive to catheters during standing estrous and they are routinely artificially inseminated using this procedure.
