Residency Training Position in Veterinary Anatomic Pathology

 

The Department of Pathobiology and Diagnostic Investigation at Michigan State University is seeking applications for a three-year residency position in veterinary anatomic pathology beginning July 1, 2009. 

Training for Anatomic Pathology residents is based in the Diagnostic Center for Population and Animal Health (DCPAH), which receives more than 12,000 necropsy and surgical pathology accessions per year from a diversity of animal species.  Residents participate in the college’s teaching programs.  The anatomic pathology residency partially fulfills the requirements for board certification by the American College of Veterinary Pathologists (ACVP).  Opportunities to enter a PhD program upon completion of the residency depend on the availability of funding in the department.  Applicants must possess a DVM or equivalent degree.  Application should include:  curriculum vitae, official veterinary college transcripts with cumulative grade point average and class standing, a statement of career goals, three letters of reference, and GRE scores.


Please send application materials to Dr. Jennifer Thomas, Acting Chairperson, Department of Pathobiology and Diagnostic Investigation, College of Veterinary Medicine, 4125 Beaumont Road, Room 201B, Lansing, MI  48910-8107.  Applications will be accepted until October 17, 2008, or until acceptable candidates are identified.  For additional information, email Dr. Jennifer Thomas at thomas@dcpah.msu.edu or Dr. Scott Fitzgerald, Resident Program Coordinator, at fitzgerald@dcpah.msu.edu.
