To celebrate 30 years of building healthier herds in partnership with valued customers, Veterinary Pharmaceutical Solutions (VPS) will offer new scholarship opportunities to early-career veterinarians. VPS will award two $2,500 scholarships to veterinarians in their first five years of practice.
“These scholarships are a token of our sincere appreciation for the support from the veterinarian community over the past 30 years,” says Dean Warras, CEO of VPS. “We remain committed to supporting the future of swine veterinary medicine, and we hope these scholarships will provide welcomed support to their recipients.”
To qualify, veterinarians must be within the first five years of practice and focused on commercial livestock. Interested candidates are invited to submit either a 400-word written statement or a two-minute video. Both should address two topics:
- The significance of the Animal Medicinal Drug Use Clarification Act (AMDUCA) and 21 CFR Part 530 in your practice as a veterinarian.
- Describe how this tool impacts your approach to veterinary medicine with clients and their pigs.
“We recognize the critical role early-career veterinarians play in the pork industry,” says Brian Payne, Commercial R&D and Technical Service Director at VPS. “We’re eager to support these important individuals to help them establish a long and fruitful veterinary career.”
