Microbiology Intern

May 2019 - August 2019 • Warrenton, VA

“It was an absolutely amazing experience to work hands-on in veterinary microbiology, serology, and necropsy. There were so many different cases and species that came through, and determining a diagnosis from the available information was very satisfying. I got plenty of hands-on time in the necropsy chamber and learned about anatomy in different species.”
