New Animal Health Partners Chair in Veterinary Medical Innovation, University of Guelph, OVC

The University of Guelph's Ontario Veterinary College (OVC) is expanding its role as a leader in translational medicine with the launch of a new $1-million research chair focused on medical innovation. The new chair position is a five-year term funded by Animal Health Partners, a veterinary emergency and specialty hospital in Toronto. “At Animal Health Partners, we are all about making a health-care impact,” said Scott Woodrow, CEO and founder of the Toronto veterinary hospital. “The Ontario Veterinary College is an ideal recipient of this $1-million gift due to their shared ethos and commitment to quality. ” “This position will provide more opportunities to focus on clinical research and accelerate the translation of medical innovations from laboratory to patient,” said Dr. Michelle Oblak, who has been named the first holder of the Animal Health Partners Research Chair in Veterinary Medical Innovation. “We share many disease conditions with our animal companions. It makes sense to take a ‘one health’ approach to medical innovation, where we bring together interdisciplinary teams to apply what we learn from veterinary medicine to human care, and vice versa,“ said OVC dean Jeff Wichtel. Congratulations Dr. Oblak
