Annual Research Symposium

Each year, the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine hosts this event to support the college’s mission of providing education to a diverse population of professional and post-graduate students in preparation for careers in the broad areas of veterinary medicine, biomedical sciences, and public health. The event serves to showcase the research of our graduate and training programs. The MS and Ph.D. degree curriculum operates as a single multi-disciplinary Biomedical and Veterinary Sciences (BMVS) graduate program.

    Our 34th Annual Research Symposium will be held on May 9, 2025, with events from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Inn at Virginia Tech. This year's theme is Research Without Boundaries. In a time when science and expertise are increasingly questioned, “Research Without Boundaries” reaffirms our dedication to open, rigorous, and inclusive discovery. It underscores our belief that addressing today’s most pressing challenges requires not only scientific excellence, but also collaboration that reaches across disciplines, cultures, and geographies.
