Description of Externship

The Department of Veterinary Pathobiology and the Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory (ADDL) offer the opportunity to preview anatomic pathology residency training at a state diagnostic laboratory in a veterinary school setting.  Externs interact with pathologists, residents and veterinary students in a necropsy service with ample and varied caseload,
then follow cases to final diagnosis through correlation of histologic examination and ancillary test esults. Histopathology training can be supplemented with biopsy case material.  (Download Application)

In addition to the veterinary library, a resource room in the ADDL provides access to PowerPoint presentations by pathology faculty, glass slide study sets complete with case histories, gross pathology images, journals and textbooks.  During the academic year, externs can participate in weekly reviews of gross photography from necropsy cases, histopathology seminars, and courses in general or systemic pathology prepared for pathology residents. 


Externs also have the opportunity to develop a case report, participate in a research project, or rotate through the branch laboratory (Heeke ADDL) at the Southern Indiana Purdue Agricultural Center, where the caseload is also diverse with many avian accessions.
