NC State Veterinary Medicine Research Roundup, October 2022
PURRFECT PARTNERSHIP. Since 2018, #NCStateVetMed has worked with @tigerworld_nc in Rockwell, NC, to provide expert care to the nonprofit’s cats. Dr. Tara Harrison, associate professor of Exotic Animal and Zoological Medicine, and her team recently visited the preserve for some examinations. Harrison says the partnership gives #NCState veterinary students and residents experiences that few other veterinary colleges can provide. “It’s a great opportunity for everyone,” she says.
Former #NCStateVetMed intern Sarah Blackwell has just opened her own veterinary clinic near Charlotte, NC. Congrats Sarah, we can't wait to see your new clinic in action! 🎉
#repost from @becauseofthem:
“The whole family came out to witness the grand opening of this black and woman-owned veterinary clinic!

A TOUCH OF HOME. When they arrived at #NCStateVetMed, Mickaël Pinto, Loli Sanchez and Javi Quesada certainly didn't expect to find not one but two other graduates of @uchceu_universidad
in Spain as part of their house officer cohort. It was a welcome touch of familiarity as they all adjusted to a new country, a new city and a new job. Read their story at https://go.ncsu.edu/triofromspain or the link in our profile.
A BIG WOW. #NCStateVetMed was happy to offer @naturalsciences in #DowntownRaleigh a way to weigh an ocean sunfish that washed ashore in #NorthCarolina this week. On our horse scales, the fish weighed a whopping 450 lbs! It measured 82” wide, 74” long. The museum plans to preserve it.
CLOSE-UP CLASSES. The semester is over, which means it's selective time at #NCStateVetMed. Students choose their selectives — fast-paced, intensely focused classes that last one or two weeks — from an array of offerings ranging from equine anesthesia to global health management to feline oncology. Because NC State cares for a pack of critically endangered red wolves, 20 students were able to choose Carnivore Medicine as an option, and this week they were learning how to capture, handle, sedate and examine the wolves, which get full physicals including radiographs every other year. Read more about the wolves at the link in our profile.
IT'S GIVING TUESDAY. The success of our work depends in large part on the generous gifts and donations from people like you — alumni, friends, partners and animal lovers. We are so thankful for everyone who helps us provide compassionate and state-of-the-art care and create innovative ways to be better healers. Help us make an impact by using the link in our bio.
ICYMI. When a puppy with an unheard-of condition was referred to #NCStateVetMed hospital, a veterinary resident relentlessly worked to save him. And a UNC School of Medicine 'human' doctor generously offered his skills and time to help. Here, veterinary resident Katie Anderson greets the puppy, Winston, before a checkup in October.
