Current Intramural Research Projects
Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine is located in a unique location where we are provided with a great opportunity to develop research projects that look at the issues in a developing country. Public health and the environment play a large role in the well being of animals and humans here in St. Kitts and the Caribbean, and understanding these relationships is vital to the core of our research. We are situated in the Caribbean where we have the responsibility to collaborate closely with nations throughout the Caribbean as well as Africa, Europe, and North America, and focus on the issues that connect all these parts of the world.
Our research projects reflect the most important ideals of the veterinary medicine community throughout the world in continuing to improve animal and human health as well as encourage veterinary students to cultivate knowledge through research. Below are links to current research projects based on areas of focus.
- Public health and epidemiology, including infectious and parasitic diseases
- Conservation medicine and environmental health
