Dear Undergraduate Research Advisor,<br>
<br>
Please share the following with any students you feel may be
interested in VMD-PhD combined degree training.<br>
<br>
Thank you!<br>

Rabbits help lower cholesterol. Cats may lead to a breakthrough in the
AIDS epidemic. And dogs have taught doctors new heart surgery
techniques. Even lobsters help scientists understand Parkinson's
disease. Since the turn of the century, animal research has helped
wipe out such diseases as smallpox and polio while increasing the
human lifespan by 28 years. Whether it's fighting epilepsy, finding a
cure for Alzheimer's or making progress in brain and spinal cord
trauma, the link between human health and animal health is absolutely
crucial.<br>
<br>
The University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine provides
an outstanding environment for the training of future veterinary
scientists through our combined VMD-PhD program. It's an excellent way
for you to continue your education while impacting the future of
medicine for humans and all species.</blockquote>
