Currently I work in a lab, but instead of mice, I work with food animals. I really like my job (university worker) and this summer I have been invited to become even more involved with several projects. I really like the research we are doing; some is comparative medicine (developing animal models) while the other directly impacts food animal health. I love working with food animals and my original plan for vet school was to apply with Food as my focus, but I've become increasingly aware that the market may not support another food vet with tons of debt. However, becoming a Research Vet seems to require more schooling and I assume (perhaps incorrectly) that most research vets deal mostly with "little squeakers".
I guess I was wondering if there was anyone out there that might shed some light on the topic of Research Medicine. And yes, I've been to ACLM site and seen the power-point presentations
I just wanted to see if anyone had any first hand knowledge or experience.
