The UC Davis Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital (VMTH) will add to its nation-leading house officer program by becoming the first facility to host a training opportunity under the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine’s (ACVIM) new Fellowship Program. The program will offer a multi-year, hands-on clinical training opportunity in cases specifically within a discipline. The first ACVIM Fellowship at UC Davis will be offered in Infectious Diseases, and fellowships in other areas of interest will be developed by the ACVIM in the coming months.
Along with the usual seasonal suspects of summer sores and pigeon fever, summer and fall are also prime time for increases in disease caused by West Nile virus.
The school celebrated its inaugural Global Programs Day with a lunch seminar addressing climate change and an evening presentation by students who completed summer externships and fellowships around the world.
