About the VMSRTP
Veterinary & Biomedical Research
The heart of the VMSRTP is introducing students to research by
giving them experience in research laboratories. Each student
fellow works closely with a faculty mentor to design and conduct
her/his own project. The program provieds an Orientation to
Veterinary & Biomedical Research throughout the summer.
