The Tulane National Primate Research Center offers a nine-week Summer Veterinary Program to a limited number of veterinary students interested in working in the Division of Veterinary Medicine. This program introduces veterinary students to nonhuman primate medicine.
Successful program candidates are paired with a TNPRC faculty veterinarian and are exposed to all aspects of diagnostic and clinical veterinary medicine including regulatory issues, colony health surveillance, research support, and clinical nonhuman primate medicine, surgery, and pathology. At the end of the program, students will be expected to present a short case report to the Center's faculty and staff.
