Foundations and corporate organizations have played an essential role in UC Davis’ Expect Greater campaign, contributing $1,173,263,484 through research exchange and donations.
One such partnership between UC Davis and Mars spans nearly 50 years of history, with wide ranging collaborations driving significant advancements across the food, health and agriculture sectors.
Dr. Michael Kent received the American College of Veterinary Radiology (ACVR) 2023 Distinguished Service Award, presented recently at the annual ACVR conference held in New Orleans.
Thanks to corporate and private donations, the nation’s largest veterinary house officer (residents, interns, fellows) program at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine just got even larger. The advanced training programs for veterinarians range from one year (fellowships and internships) to two-four years (residencies). Following completion of residency programs, veterinarians are able to sit for rigorous testing procedures to seek board certification in a specialty area of veterinary medicine (internal medicine, surgery, dermatology, cardiology, etc.).
The UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, in collaboration with LONGMILE Veterinary Imaging, has completed the first phase of the validation of the MILE-PET, the first positron emission tomography (PET) scanner specifically designed to image the limbs of standing horses, using light sedation, eliminating the need for anesthesia.
