Summer Opportunities for Veterinary Students at JHU
Every summer, The Department of Molecular and Comparative Pathobiology provides training opportunities in biomedical research, veterinary anatomic pathology and laboratory animal medicine to veterinary students. Three summer programs are available and offerings include opportunities for both research and clinical activities. See below for details:
