The college’s annual celebration of research typically occurs as a full-day of in-person activities. Because of current restrictions on in-person gatherings, this year’s event will be held virtually.
Our annual celebration is the time for college researchers including veterinary students, graduate students, trainees, staff, and faculty members to present their research progress. A keynote speaker from outside of the college, whose work broadly addresses college research efforts, is selected through a process of nominations and voting.
The annual celebration of research is also a time to recognize outstanding effort with the presentation of graduate student awards and the initiation of new members into Phi Zeta, the honor society of veterinary medicine.
Research Day activities are co-sponsored by Zoetis, Boehringer Ingelheim, Phi Zeta and the College of Veterinary Medicine Office of Research and Advanced Studies.
