Thomas Baldwin is a Professor at Utah State University's Utah Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (UVDL), operating within the Department of Animal, Dairy, and Veterinary Sciences in the College of Agriculture and Applied Sciences. Licensed as a Utah veterinarian (2024), he has served as a veterinary pathologist since 2001 while teaching graduate pathology courses.
- PhD in Veterinary Pathology (Veterinary Science), Louisiana State University, 1992
- DVM (Veterinary Medicine), Washington State University, 1988
- BS in Veterinary Science, Washington State University, 1985
His research centers on infectious disease pathology across livestock and aquaculture systems, with expertise in bovine viral diarrhea diagnostics, Myxobolus cerebralis in trout, Edwardsiella ictaluri pathogenesis in catfish, and zoonotic outbreaks like SARS-CoV-2 in mink. Work on nutritional deficiencies (e.g., vitamin A dermatopathy in Angus cattle) demonstrates his diagnostic breadth.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals consistent focus on disease etiology in the Intermountain West, spanning viral, bacterial, and parasitic pathogens. Key trends include molecular diagnostic development, cross-species transmission risks (e.g., Mycoplasma bovis), and emerging disease responses, with strong emphasis on practical applications for livestock producers.
