9th Annual CVMBS Research Day

Colorado State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (CVMBS) is proud to invite you to attend the 9th Annual CVMBS Research Day February 16th.

Colorado State University’s CVMBS is consistently ranked first nationally in extramural research funding among Colleges of Veterinary Medicine. As a way of showcasing the excellence in student research that contributes to this success, CVMBS has developed an annual symposium. In addition to highlighting cutting edge research and innovative research approaches, the symposium provides an opportunity for local researchers and scientists to connect, enhancing collaborations and communication between basic and clinical researchers alike. All members of the CVMBS community are encouraged to participate in this free event!

We are pleased to announce that the 2008 Research Symposium will be held Saturday, February 16th at the Hilton in Fort Collins, located at the southeast corner of the intersection of Centre Drive and Prospect Road. The symposium will commence at 12PM, with keynote speaker Dr. Richard Bowen and the Pfizer Award address delivered by Dr. Doug Thamm. Poster and oral presentations in basic and clinical sciences by graduate students, veterinary students, veterinary residents and interns will follow. We will attempt to honor your selection of an oral presentation, but in the interest of time some participants may be given the option to do a poster presentation instead. There will be an awards ceremony at 6:30PM with CASH PRIZES.

In addition, CVMBS is pleased to announce the return of the Golden Pipetter, awarded to the department with the greatest participation in the symposium. Last year, the Department of Microbiology, Immunology and Pathology edged out the Department of Clinical Sciences by one participant. We anticipate the competition will be equally stiff this year.

Once again, we encourage students and faculty from all departments to participate in this event and to hear about the exciting research taking place. As in previous years, outstanding presenters of abstracts will receive awards of excellence at a ceremony following the general presentations.    We look forward to seeing you on February 16th at the Hilton in Fort Collins.

**NOTE: A new and improved method of judging will be initiated this year to allow for a great experience at Research Day**

Abstracts will be limited in length to 2000 characters; both clinical and basic science studies are welcome. Authors will be asked to indicate a preference for poster versus oral presentation format. Although individuals requesting an oral presentation may be reclassified to the poster category, individuals requesting a poster presentation will not be similarly reclassified.

The submission form is now closed.

We look forward to seeing you on February 16th at the Hilton in Fort Collins.
