Ishwinder Battoo - Malawi

This past summer, I had the incredible opportunity to spend three weeks in Malawi, a beautiful country in Southeast Africa. During my stay at the Lilongwe Wildlife Center, Malawi’s only wildlife sanctuary, I gained invaluable hands-on clinical experience and conducted research alongside veteran wildlife veterinarians.

Sophie Buelow - Rwanda

This summer I traveled to the beautiful country of Rwanda and spent 7 weeks working with veterinarians at the University of Rwanda and New Vision Veterinary Hospital. I was able to assist with sample collections for part of a 3 year research project in Akagera National Park aiming to collect more data on the current levels of antimicrobial resistance in wildlife and domestic species.

Last winter break, I had the opportunity to travel to Argentina to work with Dr. Marcela Uhart and Dr. Ralph Vanstreels. I spent most of my time in Camarones, a quiet seaside fishing community, where I was instantly greeted by the beautiful coastlines of Patagonia.

Dual Focus: Clinical & Research

This summer, I spent five weeks in Vietnam learning about wildlife rehabilitation and companion animal care. This experience allowed me to explore a different aspect of my culture and gave me insights into what it is like to be a veterinarian in Vietnam.
