2013 Foundation Auction!

Thanks to ALL OF YOU who continually support the AAVLD Foundation Auction and make it a huge success each year. This year the auction will again be one of the highlights of the annual AAVLD meeting.  Enjoy the fun of a real auction with professional auctioneers.

 

The mission of the AAVLD Foundation:

·   Recruit future veterinary diagnosticians

·   Educate and retain the next generation of veterinary diagnosticians

·   Reward excellence in veterinary diagnostic medicine


Please support the AAVLD Foundation by donating an item(s) from your laboratory.

 

Foundation accomplishments:

 

A primary focus of the Foundation in recent years has been to increase the number of trainee travel awards to assist our future veterinary laboratory diagnosticians to attend and / or make presentations at our annual meeting. AAVLD is partnering with the Center for Public and Corporate Veterinary Medicine (CPCVM) to send selected DVM students from across the USA to our meeting in 2013.

 

2013 Highlights

·   Graduate student trainee travel awards increased from $1,000 to $1,500 each to more fully pay for travel costs.  Same number of total graduate student trainee travel awards as 2011 and 2012 (9-11 depending upon applicant pool). 

·   CPCVM total funding increased 50% (from $4,000 to $6,000) to increase number of DVM students attending the meeting. 

 

Recent AAVLD Foundation Sponsored Travel Awards:

·   2013- Will send 10 graduate student trainee travel awards plus 15 DVM student travel awards to San Diego this year.

·   2012- 9 graduate student awards plus 11 DVM awards
