臨床から
未来の獣医療
を創る。
獣医という単語から皆さんが連想するのは動物の病気を様々な検査を行って診断し、投薬や手術で治療するいわゆる臨床獣医師の姿ではないでしょうか。
先端獣医療学教室はまさに附属動物医療センターでの診療および手術部門を担当する教員で構成される、臨床に重きを置いた研究室です。私たちの目的は「獣医療の発展」であり、これを通じて社会貢献や動物福祉の一端を担うべく、日々の診療、教育、研究に取り組んでいます。

RESEARCH / 研究内容

先端獣医療学教室では、病院に所属する多くの教員が研究指導を担っています。
そのため、研究分野は外科や内科に関連するものに留まらず、麻酔や画像診断といった小動物臨床に関わる幅広いテーマを取りあつかいます。
教員と学部生を中心とした研究活動ではありますが、国内外の学会に積極的に参加し研究発表を行い、さらには国際誌への論文掲載を目標に日々研究活動に励んでいます。
