Our mission is to understand the mechanisms of disease in animals and apply what we learn in the laboratory to the study of human disease.
We pursue a broad array of research programs, provide animal health servicesand resources for Yale's laboratories through the Yale Animal Resources Center, and offer a residency and graduate coursesin animal medicine.
Because our research requires a wide range of perspectives and expertise, we draw on a facultyof twenty-two veterinarians, physicians and scientists from numerous disciplines.
