Lindsay has been a major figure in international parasitology research for much of the past two decades. He then chronicled the scientists and the organizations he has been affiliated with during a career that has coincided with major advancements in the field of parasitology. Lindsay worked at Auburn University and the American Parasitology Institute at Beltsville, Maryland prior to joining the Virginia Tech faculty in 1997. P. Ren van Weeren, DVM, PhD, Dipl. He also determined that even tissues deemed difficult to repair, such as tendons and articular cartilage, are sensitive to remodeling in this age group.
Rest is very bad for foals.
He looked at Dutch Warmblood foals in groups that were kept on complete stall rest, given stall rest but excercised daily, and kept completely on pasture exercise. Some were analyzed at five months, and the remaining continued on to 11 months of study. He and his colleagues found that there is dynamic and rapid development and remodeling of the musculoskeletal system during the period from birth to five months. These changes still occur during the period from five to 11 months, but much more slowly, and some parts such as articular cartilage collagen already have completed forming. Withholding of exercise led to a retardation of development in the foals.
