"The future of veterinary medicine depends on these outstanding students and their fellow classmates," said Patricia N. Olson, DVM, PhD, MAF president and CEO. "By giving students the opportunity to work on MAF-funded projects while they are in veterinary school, we hope to encourage them to consider a career in animal health research."
